Remove Yellow Stains From Chrome Rims


Chrome rims add visual appeal to cars, motorcycles and trucks. To maintain the lustrous shine of chrome rims, vigilance is needed. Because the wheels of a vehicle are in constant contact with the ground, rims get dirty. Sometimes yellow stains appear on the chrome as the beginning stages of rust. Fortunately, these stains can be removed with a little work.


Difficulty:
 
Moderately Easy

Instructions


Things You'll Need


  • Chrome wheel cleaner
  • Polish soap
  • Bucket
  • Hose
  • Roll of paper towels
  • Baby oil
  • Cotton cloth
  • Fine steel wool
    • 1
      Take the bottle of chrome wheel cleaner and squeeze out some of the liquid onto the chrome rim. Be certain that you cover the entire affected area that you will be working on. Rub the area with a cloth rag in a circular motion. Repeat on any additional affected areas.
    • 2
      Use a small chunk of fine steel wool for more stubborn stains that won't come off using a rag. For the really stubborn or long-set stains, allow the chrome rim to sit for 2 to 3 minutes after spraying. Do not allow the cleaner to dry on the chrome rims.
    • 3
      Wet a slightly abrasive sponge with water from a hose or bucket. Apply the polishing soap to the wet sponge in a circular fashion and build a good lather.
    • 4
      Apply the soapy sponge to the areas that were treated with the chrome cleaner. Rub the chrome rims using the same circular motion that was used applying the cleaner. Start on the area that was cleaned first. Work your way to the other areas in the order used for cleaning.
    • 5
      Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove the soap suds that are left over. Running water from a hose could also be used for this task. If using water, dry the chrome rim completely with a towel or cloth.
    • 6
      Apply some baby oil on a soft cloth and rub over the entire rim. This will give the chrome rim a beautiful showroom shine.
