does anyone know of a good inexpensive product that will take off water marks and such off of chrome, because my tower bars front and back need it really badly.

well with my exuast i used to use a chrome polish type stuff that is pretty cheap and it would shine really good. I cant remeber exactly what it is called though. You can get it at an auto store. It comes in a tin can and uses fiber strands that you just tear peices off then apply it and wait a couple minutes, then just wipe it off. I dont remember if it was an eagle product, or something else.

I used to use Turtle Wax Chrome cleaner on my old chrome wheels and exhaust tips and it worked great. Try it..it was only like a couple of bucks per bottle and a little bit goes a long way.

thanks for the suggestions, but i found some stuff in my garage that is totally for the purpose, just regular old chrome and metal polish did the trick, for my cold air intake i had to do it a few times over but after about an 45-1 hour span everything that can be polished and shiny is on my car.

Hi Member..
The product name you were thinking about is in my garage also..it's "Never Dull" by Eagle Products..works really good on wire wheels and bike pipes also..
