Wax to protect the chrome on my frame

<< < (4/4)

Flatcap:
I can help you here mate as I ran my own car detailing business for a few years.

There's no problem using an abrasive polish or a chrome cleaner to bring back the shine but it will give you very little protection. Some abrasive polishes also have fillers in them that mask the fine scrathes hence giving you a better looking finish that it really is. Invest in some decent Carnauba Wax paste which you can use for protecting chrome as well as paintwork. A decent one for the money which will be perfect for you bike is a wax called S100 which they sell in Harley dealers. You can get the car version of this too which is called P21S but it's a little more expensive. You can also get some Poorboys Nattys or Chemical Guys XXX for around a tenner as well which would ideal for what you want.

Some of my Swissol waxes cost me hundreds but I think these would be a bit of an overkill - LOL! Still, I was cheaper than Paul Dalton's £5K car wash.

Hope that helps mate.

Daz.
