Default Chrome Resto

Winter did nasty shit to my beauty rings....







...sooooo I took this...



...and scrubbed lightly which made my beauty rings look like this...





Not lookin for a "cool story bro" or anything of that nature just figured I'd share an easy way to get surface rust off of chrome...

Now figure out a way to get rid of pitting with a household product.


Oh and cool story bro.

Steel wool was a mainstaple of my upbringing.

It takes rust off of just about anything, and it's also a great fire starter.

Steel wool+9volt battery=Fire.

I wonder how well it'd work on the oxidation on aluminum? Like IC pipes, wheels, manifolds, etc...

I also use Never Dull... That stuff works pretty well too...

However, Honda OE wheel coating doesn't like Wesley's Bleach White...
