Hi,
I noticed that the black, aluminum window trim on my 1973 GMC was very rough (to the touch) in a variety of places and also appeared to have almost a kind of mold or fungus on it. In fact, it was merely aluminum corrosion.
I took white distilled vinegar and brushed in on both the inside and outside sections that had the corrosion. I left the vinegar on overnight and rinsed with water in the morning.
I got fantastic results. Most or all of the corrosion was removed but the remaining black paint was undamaged. I'm sure another application will remove any remaining corrosion. All I need to do then is a light sanding and then apply new flat black paint.
I found this a great alternative to removing and replacing the window trim and hope you find it as helpful as I did.
Thanks!
Keith Lee
