Etched metal tile trim

[On one]

Unfortunately I allowed some adhesive to squeeze underneath the protective plastic of a brushed metal trim.
This looks to have etched the metal.
Would this polish out with T-Cut or similar?

What is the trim? Stainless is usually OK, the anodised and some cheaper aluminium ones can be more difficult. Schluter do a polish but Autosol or similar is worth a go.

I’ve used autosol before on marked trim and it’s worked a treat, depends on how deep the damage is, if it’s superficial then it should clear with a bit of elbow grease

You've hit the nail on the head there.......it was a cheaper end of the market trim!

Send the apprentice to the hardware store for the elbow grease!

Well the Autosol didn't work
Barring cutting the trim out..........Any idea's?

How deep is it, have you got a pic?

 

[On one]

I dont have a picture and it might be hard to pick it up on a camera.
It is a brushed trim but the etched part looks like a polished trim
Not deep at all......just a different shade

Try rubbing it with a bit of adhesive..

If you have a spare bit of trim recreate the scratch and try that

But just smear some adh on first,leave for 24 hrs and away you go!

 

[On one]

Well.....did a test on spare piece of trim,
Same brand of adhesive, 1 an S1 adhesive and an S2 adhesive.
After 24 hrs setting time,
The S2 adhesive rubs off without leaving a mark,
The S1 adhesive is stained and no amount of rubbing,scrubbing or polishing will undo the etching.
So I'm F****D
