HD Engine Brightener

Make your engine look new again. H-DŽ Engine Brightener refreshes and rejuvenates tired wrinkle black finishes on engine cases, cylinder fins, covers, or anywhere else the color has faded or lost its luster.
  • Finish restorer cleans deep into the wrinkle black surface, and moisturizes the finish to return the original satin sheen
  • Just spray it on, let it soak in and wipe away for a fresh look

This is for the fins and the black areas he is speaking of the rocker covers which are chrome.

Not a direct answer, but Powder Pro has powder coated (black) rocker covers that they'll exchange for yours to prevent excessive downtime. Replacing them isn't too hard and it's a really clean look.
