What Causes White Spots on Chrome Plating?

[LaKira]

White spots on chrome plating may be caused by corrosion from car wash shops, with most cases resulting from the use of spray agents. Specific details are as follows: 1. Harsh Vehicle Environment: Additionally, white spots can occur due to a poor vehicle environment, where the chrome plating is exposed to acid rain, acid fog, or high salt content in coastal air. Since the chrome plating layer has already eroded at the white spots, they cannot be repaired. 2. Treatment Methods: The first option is polishing, but this removes the chrome layer, making it impossible to restore the original appearance and leaving the surface more susceptible to future corrosion. The second option is to seek replacement from the manufacturer, as the appearance of white spots may indicate the manufacturer's responsibility due to cost-cutting during production, resulting in poor chrome plating quality.
