Permanent fix to the oxidized trim??

Really easy to do, mask then wet sand with 1000 grit, then apply solution.

Supposedly good for two years, stay tuned.

I'm guessing this will only work for chrome trim and not shadow line?

Sounds crazy, but try aluminum foil and diet coke.

Fold the foil into a 4"x4" square, pour some diet coke on it and rub the wet foil onto the oxidized surface.

I know it works to get rid of rust on chrome, and I'm betting it'd work on oxidation.

I've tried it on chrome in the house and it worked great. Be sure to use diet coke because you don't want sugar all over your car!
