Hey Bendy , are you going to spill the beans on this and tell us what you used ???
I can't see it being just autosol as that can be quite abrasive and would surely of resulted in some yellowing to the frame :-\
Coke/tinfoil ? Lemon juice/tinfoil ?
It's a cracking job mate 8)
Regarding the forks .... you should have been at MK09 , Jai was selling a box of Tange pinched forks (ideal for this) at a £10 a pop ::)

£10 a pop - bugger :'(
autosol = is too harsh and scratchy - will take off more chrome than you want and leave hair line scratches that will dull the chrome
coke and tin foil = the coke eats the rust - the tin foil takes it away but again is not a great choice of stuff to use - the tin foil will start to scratch the chrome when it gets more crumpled , it also collects rust in the foil and bigger bits can scratch chrome to dull it
lemon does the same as coke = brakes down the rust = it can help but be careful that the rust spot /pit does get too much lemon/coke under the chrome or it might start toi pull it up and get under more chrome
cheers B ;)

I'd use a three stage polishing kit designed for automotive use (check out Frosts ) but the key is how you use what you have, take your time.
