  • Is very easy to remove the Chrome trims from this Mercedes ML. Unusually for a lot of Mercedes models the front chrome trim is under the mirror and in order to remove the chrome trim you need to remove first the mirror, but not for this model. Here are some AliExpress links to cheap tools that I use daily in my workshop:

      I was thinking the same thing. Most youtubers would of talked and stretched the video to the 10 min mark and run as many ads as possible.

    Can I remove it to paint it & install it back the same way???

    • @DFCGarage
      @DFCGarage  4 роки тому +3

      It can be done but usually the paint well peal off because the chrome surfaces are r not so adherent

    • @MrSamwiseable
      @MrSamwiseable 3 роки тому

      @@DFCGarage do you recommend wrapping chrome or sanding and painting it?

    • @DFCGarage
      @DFCGarage  3 роки тому +1

      Lord Aragorn if you ask a paint shop to paint your Chrom trims they will explain you that the paint will start to peel of after a few years. Better wrap them is cheaper and you can remove the vinyl later.

      You can plastidip them if you don't feel comfortable wrapping

    If you need to replace the rubber weatherstripping seal, do you have to replace the whole chrome trim or can you just replace the rubber part?

    Any chance you could do the same video but on the rubber trim, with the thin aluminium strip. Our Mercedes has this type......
