chrome
I have really been struggling with trying to remove the rust from the wheels on the Wedgwood pram. I have tried all the tips from using aluminium foil to a brass brush, also tried Autosol and rust removers, none of them have made much impact on the second wheel. The first one has cleaned up reasonably well. I thought the only solution might be to get the wheels rechromed, but that would mean removing all the spokes and the tyres. As the tyres are old I think they would crumble if removed, whereas they probably have several miles of use left in them as they are. I shall persevere trying to get rid of the rust on the wheels, but have decided to obtain a quote for having the handles and the hood arms rechromed and have found a company a couple of miles from my home who is going to give me an estimate.
