Seldomseen Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 I still haven't found a permanent cure to faded black chrome. Meguiars products only work temporarily...the most effective solution is to just replace the parts with new ones. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 faded chrome can never really be put back to its glory unless taken care of, but hte mothers back to black, excellent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MazdaMomma Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 didn't make it to autozone this weekend. might try to hit there at lunch today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seldomseen Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 The majority of cars from '05 + don't even use much black chrome anymore...which is a good thang! That crap takes to much of a beating from UV light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 what black chrome? are you talking about powder-coating? none exists on the millenia, but my jeeps brush guard and rock sliders are fine, no fading at all, and all I have to do is wash them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seldomseen Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 There aint any black chrome on the 01-02 Millenia if I can remember correctly. Black chrome is just PITA to maintain throughout time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 I can't think of any car with black chrome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MazdaMomma Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 me neither. I did find the back to black tho. will test it this weekend as well as replace the ignition in the F150 (by myself) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seldomseen Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 The black plastic/rubber is known as black chrome.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 not to me, its known as black plastic, or rubber. and what I had on my old jeep, the very rough unpolished unpainted plastic for the cladding was in no way "chrome" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Without comparing products back to back, I can say I am very pleased with the Meguiars Gold Class trim detailer. It was particularly good on the black mirrors of a friend's Suzuki. I will keep an eye out to see how long the results last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 I expect good things, its meguiers, I have just had slightly better results with the back to black. I'm curious how long this detailer will last however Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Unlike my Eunie, my friend's Suzuki is parked outside so it will be a good test of how long the product lasts. I will post any updates... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 I consider outside parking abuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted September 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 As do I, but it seems more common these days amongst the mainstream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MazdaMomma Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 I ended up being out of town for the weekend. I may try to test the back to black on Sunday. Depends on weather and whether or not I have to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 weather will be fine, I command you to obtain B2B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MazdaMomma Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 I have the stuff. Have had it for almost 2 weeks now. I was not planning to be out of town last weekend. Unfortunately, I have to work this weekend, so it will have to be Sunday. I also haven't installed the new ignition in the F150 either.
