Advice needed on tidying up brake cable rub on chrome...

(1/2) > >>

MartyC:
I have a couple of chrome frames that have light scratches  from brake cables that have dulled the chrome, what's the best way to do this without removing too much chrome? I don't really want to use autosol and would appreciate the best way to do this to bring back the shine.

Cheers

Marty

griff:
Peek polish less abrasive than Autosol
Goddard's Silver cloth less than that
Would try those in the first instance, although if the chrome plate itself is too scratched / worn then no amount of polish can replace it

MartyC:
I've got a Goddards Cloth, that works a treat on minor dullness.  Not tried Peek, have used Meguiars Metal Polish which is gentler than Autosol will have a look for Peek tomorrow  :daumenhoch:

vienna lime will help too , between polishing with peak, it will clean the surface so your not ploshing dirt into the surface  :daumenhoch:
