Chrome Cleaner

jims-terrano · 28-03-2016, 20:09

Hi all, can anyone recommend a brand of chrome cleaner please. Seen videos on youtube using coke and foil but would rather use something more sensible.

Cheers

I have always used the Autosol cream in the past, worked a dream, but nothing seems to have chrome on it now.

Not tried owt on it yet but got loads to do, it's the MG by the way.

Autosol for me to Jim.
One trick though, buff to a shine, then use your usual bodywork wax polish to seal the chrome afterwards.

Brasso or Autosol here, Autosol does require a bit more elbow grease from past experience however

Get some mops on a bench grinder and a bar of rouge makes a tedious job a piece of p155
