Thanks to Mopar Dan I have replaced my two dented wheel well trim pieces. I assume these are aluminum - i tried vinegar and steel wool, any suggestions on how to rebrighten the trip?
It has to be real oven cleaner, not the "no fumes" tree hugger stuff. I looked into getting my trim bright dipped and anodized about 15 years ago and,,,,,,,,,,,,my wallet told me no, and I'm sure the price hasn't gone down since then. Maybe someday when I get tired of polishing it every couple months. Besides that, it scratches if you even look at it wrong.You can strip the anodizing off with oven cleaner.

Hehe, chrome, in general, likes to do this. It might even be what is used for "razor wire" (maybe).Chrome aluminum wheels especially like to peel in big, sharp, finger slicing chunks.
