    Front window trim

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey everyone. Just wondering if anyone has had an issue with the front window trims bubbling up? I know it's common seeing as I've had this on 3 Audis I've owned but I'm wondering how I can fix this. Also I have the chrome trim. What kind of cleaner can I use to polish it as mines started to go dull. I have pics but cants seem to upload em. Thx in advance

    I don't think you can repair chrome that is de-laminating. All you can do is replace the trim. As far as chrome polish, there are a lot of products off the shelf you can use to polish undamaged but dull chrome, like turtle wax chrome polish. Make sure to mask it off since you won't want it on your paint, or remove the trim first, which is a pain since it requires you to dismantle your door card and remove windows and window frames.

    Sorry I should b more specific but the chrome is fine but just dull and needs a polish. Someone told me to use stainless polish but not sure about it. My actual issue is the window frame bubbling under the rubber which is obv rust
