Unfortunately, the storage I have for my 3000 is not always without dampness,
and I have been having a reoccurring problem with the chrome.
Even covered and in the garage, I am periodically finding uniform formation of
small fogged spots that require chrome polish to remove. However, after say
5-6 weeks they begin to reappear. I have used Maguire chrome polish, and have
tried paste wax, but always the start of corrosion reappears after a while.
I used to use Simichrome and don't recall this happening, but haven't had
Simichrome in a while. I was wondering if this would help.
Does all chrome do this in humid conditions, or is the "show chrome" I had
done suspect?
I had heard that all chrome has "pores" and will do this if not properly
protected.... Any thoughts, or suggestions?
