Chrome & Metal Polish
+$75
Chrome and bare metal surfaces develop oxidation, water spots, light rust, and tarnish that progressively dull their reflective finish. This service uses specialized metal polishing compounds to cut through surface oxidation and contamination, stepping through progressively finer polishes to bring the metal to a brilliant, mirror-like shine. A final metal sealant is applied to slow future oxidation and make the surface easier to keep clean between washes.
When You Need This
Add chrome and metal polish when exhaust tips, grille surrounds, door handles, mirror caps, or bumper accents look dull, spotted, or show surface rust. It pairs naturally with paint correction jobs where polished paint deserves equally sharp chrome accents — dull chrome next to corrected paint is immediately noticeable. It is also a strong choice before a car show or vehicle sale.
What's Involved
- 1.Clean metal surfaces with a pH-neutral cleaner to remove loose contamination, road film, and any wax or dressing residue.
- 2.Apply a medium-cut metal polish with a foam or microfiber applicator and work in small circular motions to cut through oxidation and surface rust.
- 3.Buff the surface with a clean microfiber towel to remove compound residue and reveal the initial clarity.
- 4.Follow with a fine finishing polish to maximize reflectivity and remove any micro-marring left by the cutting stage.
- 5.Apply a thin layer of metal sealant to protect the polished surface from future tarnishing, water spots, and oxidation.
