Trim restoration
#1
I believe I saw someone on here that has done some major restoration on trim parts. Can anyone tell me who it might have been? I can't seem to find any of the posts.

Well, any research on any Mopar part will always be attributed to Richard AKA Thebankerstoy.

With out Richard, we all would be lost.



...well lost more than now.

I've seen Rich posts lots of stuff, but I don't believe it was him. I'll keep searching. Someone was restoring trim really well....

Thanks Rich and Todd, but my posts usually deal with finding parts, or the part numbers themselves rather than the restoration of parts.

I will say though, it would be very helpful if we all knew what car and what parts are involved here as it's difficult to read minds. Wink

For some unknown reason, nobody seems to take me seriously............

Hey Richard, my car is a 65 Coronet 500. The posts I was looking for weren't dealing with a particular car, but more just on how to restore trim.

Were you a member of the board before it was redone almost 2yrs ago?

I remember 70rtvert had done a pretty extensive thread on there about trim restoration on his car
I love Mopars so much I'm date coding the skid marks in my underwear.

No, 67440 Dodge, I only recently joined. Also wondering if I am thinking of posts from another site dedicated to b bodies. Don't want to break any rules for posts.

There might be something at FBBO. I know of King of Trim in CA, and I have a friend who will do my stuff, but not sure if he'll work for the public. He kind of likes to only work for people he knows.

What are you trying to redo?

To start with, if you are looking to remove cloudy anodizing, you might start on the pieces yourself with Blue Lightning Anodize remover. I used it on trim for my 67 Coronet and it worked better than other methods I tried. It was safe to use (without gloves). I had to make a couple attempts in some places, but the pieces cleaned up nicely.
