coca cola to clean/remove rust from chrome bumpers and chrome parts

hey guys had a little tip here to maybe help you out with some shine. buddy of mine told me about this. all i did was use coca cola and a very soft steel wool and in a circular motion with mild pressure just rubbed the whole bumper with extra attention to the rust. take a dry cloth and wipe the excess residue. clean with soap and water then polish. took me about 30 minutes.

This was proven on Mythbusters about 10 years ago.

Just a myth. Water would have achieved the same results.
