I use FW1, it is a spray, cleans and waxes and no issue with removing white wax remnants from hard to get at areas. I use it on the wheels and pipes.

Check out Polish Angel Palladium - it'll knock your socks off, it's hand made in Germany. They don't make it until you order it, turn around time is 3 days to the east coast

I've always been one that steers away from anything that's sold at Auto Zone, Oreillys and big box joints like Wal Mart. If you have a dark colored bike and want chrome to look wet then this is the stuff. I use this stuff and never looked back.

I had excellent results with Turtle Wax Chrome Polish. Used it on the Road King before taking pics and putting it up for sale. It is very much worth the price I paid. Got it at Wal-Mart.
