Use a magnet. If it sticks it's chrome. If not, it's polished aluminum.
52100 Chrome Steel has a stronger magnetic attraction force compared to 440C Stainless Steel due to its higher carbon content, which makes it more ferromagnetic.
No, chrome vanadium is an alloy of chromium and vanadium with steel, whereas carbon is a chemical element found in many types of steel. Chrome vanadium steel is known for its strength and durability, while carbon content in steel affects its hardness and strength properties.
To fix scratched stainless steel surfaces, you can try using a non-abrasive cleaner or a stainless steel polish. Gently rub the cleaner or polish onto the scratched area in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel. This may help to minimize the appearance of the scratches.
