Blue magic on the chrome,leaves a nice silicon coat to prevent rusting,but drew is correct about the brake dust,that is what will pit your chrome

Use the Honda spray its now called "The Original " comes in a black and pink spray can and you can get it at almost any Jap bike shop , then use "Flitz" paste for detailed chrome polish cant go wrong

I use stuff called Top Coat it does a great job.

Never Dull is good for getting stuff off of chrome but it does put fine scratchs in the chrome. it is hard to see but put a flashlight on it and it becomes very noticeable

I've been using turtle Wax chrome polish with good results. I occasionally get boot scuff/melts on the pipes from being too lazy to pick up my feet properly and it cleans them up quickly.

as isle deluxe stated it is now called "the original" bike spirits in a pink and black can. It is the same product and made by the same company that produced the original spray. I have a friend who owns a big honda shop confirmed and ordered. I also know at least one big hd dealer that sells it as well. Good stuff. I have used it for years. I occasionally use on the front of my cars as well to remove bugs. I recommend anybody to try it!!
