This tip is about cleaning chrome, aluminum, or armor.
Take a piece of aluminum foil and crumple it up with the shiny side out. Start with a small test patch and rub the surface of the metal to be cleaned. Keep rubbing until the surface is cleaned. This should remove dirt, grease, and slight rust without damaging the finish
