Hi guys, John here with Road Truck Garage. You know, people been asking,
"I've got too much chrome on my truck and I want to kind of tone it down
little bit, just too much shine. How can I get that brush nickel look out
of my chrome pieces that I have on my vehicle?" Well, recently we've installed this grille
in front of our truck, custom grille from T-Wrecks, but what we want to
do is we want to put this special grille truck emblem into that grille that
we put on that truck. However,
you can see the back of this emblem is very shiny, almost mirrored-like. But what we going to do is we going to change
that mirrored-look into brush nickel finish. And I'm going to show you how to do that right
now. First
thing we want to do is go ahead and take our emblem apart. Okay, once we get this bolt in, let me go
ahead and separate two pieces. We
just go ahead and put our inner attaching bolt to the side. So now we have
this really shiny mirrored-like piece of metal here. All we going to do is
we going to go ahead and take your standard household's Scotch bright pad,
you can pick these up pretty much any grocery store, auto parts supplier,
or sometimes even paint shops. What we going to do is go ahead and take our
Scotch bright pad and it's very important that when we do this, that
we continue to move in one direction. What we'll do is we take Scotch bright pad
and we'll just keep moving across our mirrored-finish. And what we'll do is we continue to do
this until we actually achieve the desired look that we're after.
