RE: Chrome rust

["Daniel McCormack" <mcwheels@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My favorite is chrome cleaner (although I can't seem to find the good red
stuff anymore, only the white) and brass or bronze wool. Brass wool wont
scratch the chrome like steel wool. You can usually get it at a place that
sells marine supplies, it's used a lot on boats.

I've also heard Coke works on battery terminal corrosion but haven't
tried it; always used baking soda, which seems like the opposite (acid
vs. base).

I'd guess it would work on stainless too?  I think I'll give it a test
on my stainless Bronco tail pipes.
