urdrwho Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 On the bottom of the outside window is a trim piece that is now chrome. Originally it was covered with rubber but the rubber was chipping. Removed that chipping rubber and found it was chromed below. The problem is that the chrome has a lot of tiny, tiny pin sized rust. My wife wasn't happy seeing those tiny spots so I painted the one. She isn't happy with the painted one (Window1.jpg). I have a few more ideas to fix but I have been more worried, busy with trying to fix the more important P304 problem. Has anyone ever had the same situation and what did you do to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyfvholla Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Plastidip. It can be had for $7 a can from Lowes or Home Depot. I had a similar problem on my wagon. All the rubber was peeling. I pulled it off and coated it with a few layers of Plastidip. It worked out very well and held up great. I'll post a few pictures later today when I get a chance to upload them to photobucket.

dshive Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 yes, plasti dip from Home Depot. There are tons of videos on youtube that show you how to apply it too. Did it to the trim on my last car and looked great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urdrwho Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 Thanks to all. Guess what I went looking for early this morning. Found it at Lowes and thought it would be an experiment, apparently others have done it and it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sludgeroo Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Yea plasti dip is cool, but those belt mouldings wont transfer rust. I would hit them with steel wool (000) to get it off and leave it, before I would rubberized spray around my door and window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
