Can the removal of chrome trim products mar my car's finish?

Frequently Asked Questions-Auto Amenity-Best Source for Hubc...
The 3M automotive tape does its job very well, and removal of peel-and-stick trim products may cause damage to auto paint if you are not careful. While installation of our Chrome grill inserts does not cause damage, removal may, in some cases. The plastic clips hold tightly, and may possibly cause paint chips when being removed. Some models have 3M tape to supplement the clips, and the same precautions noted above must be taken when removing the tape.

Can the installation of hubcaps or Wheelskins mar the finish of my standard or styled wheels?

Frequently Asked Questions-Auto Amenity-Best Source for Hubc...
Yes, the retainer clips or struts that contact your wheel may mar or scratch its finish. The function of a hubcap or a wheelskin is to cover the wheel, and not fly off. In order for the clips to hold the hubcap on the wheel at road speeds upwards of 80 mph, bouncing over speed bumps and into potholes, they must put significant pressure against its surface.

Will this finish be as durable as metal chrome?

F.A.Q.
No it is not. Since this is a painted top coat surface, it will scratch and in exterior applications, will be susceptible to rock chips. If the top coat has been chipped and the aluminum is exposed, it will begin to oxidize in the weather and it may cause the surrounding area to lift.

Can we buff chrome?

Frequently Asked Questions - Alloy Polishing Co.
Usually not, chrome plating is just that, plated on the surface, very quickly, the chrome would be buffed through and the underlying nickel and copper would be exposed.

Do we chrome plate?

Frequently Asked Questions - Alloy Polishing Co.
Not in house, however, if you have polishing and plating, we would be more than happy to send the plating out for you. We can also prep for plating, usually by special request. If your part needs more attention to detail (nooks and crannies prepped perfect, or ‘especially’ flat surfaces) than the guys at the plating shop can give it, we would then do the pre-polish. This can be a little bit more cost on average, but it will be ‘super’ show quality.

HOW DO I FINISH THE PRODUCTS?

Faux Wood Beams Frequently Asked Questions
We have all the information you need for finishing our beams on our website at FauxWoodBeams.com/beams_installation.php. We recommend using an acrylic deck stain. An acrylic deck stain dries in about an hour or two as compared to a gel stain that about 24 hours to dry. Also a good deck stain will have a UV protector in it to prevent the finish from fading. Oil base stains do not work well with our products.

What products do you use to finish my project?

FAQ Page
There are many options for finishing a project. My standard finish includes dyes, wiping stains, sealers and lacquer. Dyes and stains used together produce a much deeper color (and darker if preferred) without "muddying" the finish. Grain patterns remain visible and can be highlighted if desired. I generally mix my own dyes and stains to attain a color that I am trying to match. Glazes highlight the pores and grain patterns.
