Milky aluminium window surrounds ? Read here...

[Morethanpolish]

A new solution to a very common issue with chrome/chrome effect metal window trim on many modern cars which turns milky and dull after washing. The same problem also afflicts roof bars.

The Hindsight Window Trim & Roof Bar Kit will swiftly polish up trim on many models, including Audi, BMW, Mercedes and more, and includes a polymer-enriched protective coating to apply after to help prevent recurrence.

The product is economical, a little goes a very long way.

Its an entirely manual process so doesn't need a polishing machine nor professional application. The Kit includes 2 applicators and a soft microfibre cloth.

Professional / dealer sized kits are available on application.

Have this exact problem on the Pug, the roof bars are awful after only 3 1/2 years, I'll certainly be ordering some after we get the final bill bout the wife's refurb'd gearbox

I dont think it does take long for this to appear, sadly. It seems pretty widespread.

Thes trims do go My bmw was bad and nothing would make it look any better .And i still dont think there is .These so called fixit creams and wipes only hide the problem Replace the part is the only cure. But interested to see if i am wrong .

I got this off another forum some time ago but it's worth trying. Use a little WD-40 on a bit of kitchen roll - wipe over the strips and then wipe off after with a dry bit of kitchen roll. Worked fine for me. Cheap as chips solution if it works for you.

Note: it may not take all the tarnish off but it improved mine enormously (5 years + tarnish)

Will work for a time , but only hide it till the next time it rains ,,then back to normal .I have even used clear coat on them .Polish them first , then wipe over with a cleaner , then spray clear coat on the trim .This way they will last years .

Has anyone tried this out?

You have nothing to loose . And you know that it spoils the look of your car,, so have a go at it .

Very Expensive, in my honest opinion.
