Can someone tell me what will clean the outer edge of the running board trim on a '30 coupe? I tried simichrome and it helped a bit but not much. I know that the trim will be some what dull, but anything will look better than it does now. Thanks.
 
I used white viniger to clean mine...BUT, mine were the 28-29 styles zinc strips and cound put all 8 peices in a PVC tube and let them soke for a few days then clean with water and shine with 3-M cloth.

The 30-31 trim material, if original, is also zinc...just how you could take them apart to clean I do not know that 1/2 of the question.

this works good on zinc and other metals... pep boys sells it

If it is made of Zinc, can't you just buff it out? Put one of those buffing wheel attachments on an electric drill? I have never done a running board trim but have buffed out zinc Motorcycle parts,
