I used seafoam on it before, which is very similar to PB, but it didn't last very long. I guess it was too thin of an oil to last. Peanut butter is more pasty, so we'll see. I'll let you guys know what it looks like tomorrow.

But how will you know if the neighborhood dogs, or deer don't come by and ruin your test?

lol, i didn't think about them.

What about the tidal flooding, nor'easters, and hurricanes? That might affect the finish on the aluminum trim. I need SKIPPY SUPER CHUNK!!!

I figured this one out by accident.

Packing tape. Yes clear thin packing tape. I was using it on one of my foam model airplanes and stuck the excess on the chrome strips, just to get it out of my hair.. I had flying to do.

I forgot about it and a few days later noticed that everywhere that had tape on it was shinny. I am guessing the tape reflects light. You cannot tell it's on there. Pull it off and you will have residue from the tape.

Give it a try.

you know if peanut butter works, crisco lard would probably work too.
