Hard rubber presents certain risks when undertaking in situ trim restoration due to the possible oxidizing and discoloring effects of the various water-based chemicals used during the trim preparation, plating, and rinsing operations. These effects are unpredictable, so you should consider this issue when deciding whether to go ahead with any trim restoration work on a hard rubber item.
