I have side step rails on my 03 screw. They are chrome, i'm assuming i really have no idea.

Anyways, they have some minor surface swirls/scratches that seem to be getting progressively worse. Would a chrome polish, #105, or any other of my paint correction products help with this problem?

Also, i'm having the same problem with my stainless steel exhaust tips. Any luck there as well?

Thanks guys,

The Diamond Brite truck box polish you can get at Lowe's does a great job on stainless exhaust tips. It's in the same aisle as the truck toolboxes and aluminum ladders.

 

I've got some Adams Metal Polishes, #s 1 and 2 if you want to give those a try.

They're probably either chrome or polished stainless. More than likely chrome.

I really like Adam's Metal Polishes. 105 is supposed to be good to polish metal. I'm not sure if it's only for certain kinds though or not. I don't know how abrasive I would go. If it's chrome plating, who knows how good the plating is. What else do you have on hand? Poorboy's Professional Polish is supposed to work as well.

 

I may give you a shout about that if what i got dosn't work. What year are you btw? I'll be at state next year.

And as to the question about what i have on hand, i have some Meg's chrome polish, 105, 205, along with some eagle 1 'all metal polish' (that was one of the first items i ever bough haha.

I'm gonna try the megs chrome polish, then the metal polish, and #105 if neither of those cut it. Ill probably pick that truck box polish as well for the tips, if what i have dosn't work.

They really arent all that bad to non-ocd people. But i notice them, and it drives me crazy. Any improvement would help. haha

 

If the tips are pretty rough looking, use some metal polish with #0000 steel wool. And then hit it again without the wool and just a towel. I just did this on my aluminum wheels and it worked great.

 

The truck box polish is supposed to work real well used with a mini powerball.
