Pumice is a by product of volcanoes and chunks are readily available

Hey, I will try pumice to remove rust from the chrome handlebars
and a few other spots on my adult trike. I live a block from
the ocean and rust is just something that happens to bikes, etc.
here. I just took it into the bike shop for a thorough tune-up
but they don't remove rust on the frame or handlebars.

I would've thought that a pumice stone would be much too abrasive
to use on chrome. We used to use Solvol Autosol to clean the chrome
on our motorbikes.

Which reminds me, I'd better take a look at my mo'bike, and see what havoc has been wreaked this winter. I hate cleaning chrome...

That's what drove some of us to reproduce.

That ..........................and mowing grass.
