Stomach Hurts LOL...Yeah, wrapping it is the way to go. Besides, I think the black trim looks better anyway. Good luck! 👍🏽

I would be scared to polish these trims because they come in slightly matte, brushed aluminium look and polishing it sound like changing the look too much to unoriginal gloss look, also its tricky to get all parts polished equally by hand.

I will be picking this up today. base on another review, they used grade #0000 steel wool and tape for no mess. My 2013 Buick and my fathers Passat both have white stains on our window trims. I'll be trying out the Passat first since it looks like it has heavy water stains, in some spots it looks like the coating itself may be coming off. Hopefully I'll remember to come back on the video after I do mine.

Haha, I tried a polish today. No good. I to saw the video with 0000 steel wool. Will try again tomorrow. Makes sense to work as I’ve polished other things with steel wool. So steel wool then polish is the go I reckon.

The ppassat trim is marred, but the white oxidization is removed, whatever was on it it ate into the clear coat. The Buick cleaned up, but in some areas is better than others. Do a good job taping off. This shit is a bitch to get off if you accidentally leave some on rubber. It worked well cleaning my exhaust tip.

I tried this with the trim on a junky car same as mine to test (late 80s GM). Worked very well, but I think I may have actual metal trim. Some of the really rough spots required the 0000 steel wool, which left faint scratches but still looks 95% better than before. I did it by hand, and using a little bit of water with the polish and steel wool. The jar says it has to turn black to work, and if it doesn’t turn black then stop or you’ll ruin it. Mine turned black. Mine turned out to be a mirror like finish very quickly. One thing I found was getting it to show on photo/video was damn near impossible. What looked brilliant in person still looked dull on my phone. What I had to do was put a dark object to reflect against, then the shine really showed. Or get it at a really shallow angle. I put some wax over it to hopefully seal it from future tarnish. If that works after some time I’ll do this on my good car.

In order to remove the oxidation, you have to use a 0000 Steel Wool Pad with Heavy/Lights Metal Cleaner or An other Metal Cleaner. The 0000 Steel Wool Pad removes the calcium covering the oxidation. Simple Chemistry Folks!

Just use rust stain remover. Coat it with it for like 5 minutes. Wipe it off, then polish with good paste. Put something like Coatz 02 Absolute Metal Coating.

i use turtle chrome polish on my 2008 bmw . i get good results. i use a very thing layer while application and let it totally dry to a haze, like waiting 30 min before starting to polish, and then i polish with much rapid hand movements like 5 strokes up and 5 strokes down per second using light pressure. sort of like shining a leather shoe. you will get much better results, like mirror level shine. good luck.

How can I make my window trim chrome ?instead of black ? some of it peeled off but I just want all the trim to be chrome
@DriveTalkCars
@DriveTalkCars 3 года назад
I think most of the window trim nowadays is plastic with a chrome film over it. So getting it “rechromed” may not be an option. You might just have to just replace the trim. Or maybe you can use chrome vinyl wrap (instead of black) to wrap the trim. Probably will have to wrap all window trim so it matches.

Don't get WD on your car paint. Over time, it will lift up the paint slowly but surely. In about 6 months you'll notice where the WD-40 seeped through.
