I’m posting this after seeing a recent post about cleaning rust from chrome by using abrasive paper circa 3000 grit with WD40
Seems kind of an aggressive method to me so I’d thought I’d share another solution
I dare say it will be known to many but just in case it is new to someone it is worth sharing
I came across this method as a kid who was cleaning up an old and scabby bicycle - my first ever grown up sized cycle so close on 50 yrs ago, grandads do come in handy for lots of things
Here goes - take a handful of “ tinfoil “ or “ aluminum foil “ dip it in water and rub on the rusty chrome .. bye bye rust !
….. and that is simply that, done job !
Remarkably effective !
Obviously heavy putting cannot be remedied but other than this the method is really effective
