All of these tips are good - I recently bought a cream based chrome cleaner and it went white and was a real bugger to buff up! Jtb you mentioned Auto Sol and I have found it to be the best as well. I recently changed my pipes (well the bikes lol) to matt black - less chrome to worry about!!!!!!!!!

yeah.. good old auto-sol for me.. and as mentioned earlier.. put a little on a buffing wheel thing or mini wire brush thingy and use a dremel or cordless drill and you can polish up little things.. bolt heads etc.. works a treat

Yes and cleaning any nut or bolt head with a wire brush will damage its coating and just make it rust faster so dont help much. The thread is about an easy way to clean chrome so its easy to read it wrong
