Rust on tunnel

[Snow Guy]

Got a 99 summit x 670 with rust on the tunnel where the seat has been touching it. Wondering if anyone knows a way to remove the rust?
Thanks

canadian tire sells a product can't remember name but it's a gell. used it on my kids truck bumper and it removed all the rust and it leaves a sealer on the metal. it's toxic but its safe for all metals including chrome

Try pouring a can of coke on it. wait a minute or so and polish it off.

I've tried brake clean and rubbing the crap out of it, with no success
Will go to the hardware store and see if they have anything like what papajake was talking about

Autosol paste or nevr dull wadding will clean it up. Napa carries both products.

can anyone suggest a good product for polishing a tunnel?

As brew_doo said, Autosol paste works really well for polishing a tunnel to a chrome like shine!

I have been using the F1 polish, its what truckers use for their chrome. You can get it at pretty well any truck place, I buy mine at Peterbuilt. I just put it on a buffing cloth and use my drill, it takes a fair amount of elbow grease by hand, I find if u polish until the product is almost dry (you will see it start to dry up) then stop and let it air dry the rest of the way, then buff it off. Autosol works good too, takes longer and has an ammonia smell that I don't like though.

Here is the thread about F1 - https://www.snowandmud.com/just-about-anything-goes-76/f1-metal-polish-53914-4.html
