Default quick question

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.
