Title: Anyone ever used this on chrome ???
Post by: Jamroll on May 20, 2011, 10:58 AM
Everyone seems to use peek, but was wondering if anyone had used this stuff  ???
Seem to get some good reviews etc on the web  :coolsmiley: Just wondering if anyone on here had used it?

Yep, I used on my Robinson RSR after the OA bath; it's not too agressive and brings up chrome pretty well.

 :coolsmiley: Did it leave any protective layer over theframe after...the reason i ask is i need to polish up before the candy laqour goes over the top again...but i dont know if the protective layer would react with the laqour or dull the finish  :-\

They claim it does, whether it actually does I don't know but I would think a wipe over with pre-paint would remove it and still leave it shiney; is this for the CW?

when i used peek on those forks to show how they could come up, at the end i used a jay cloth and water and rubbed in peek into the cloth and a drop more water so it was wet but not dripping wet - then just gentle rub in lines down the tubing

i would test the method on some thing else before you try on the frame - the answer in to go gently

don't know if this helps mate  ;) pm me if you want to call me about it and further details or even coming to see you at work as i need to sort my laptop out in farnham

cheers B  ;)
