I'm looking to see what you guys use for a fast, easy, chrome polish/detailer that can be sprayed on, wiped off, everything including paint!! I was using Stripper Juice but it's no longer available where I live! What do you guys n Gals use??

I use ammonia free windex (or any ammonia free window cleaner). I was told to use ammonia free as to not dull the finish on the paint.

I also use Blue Magic metal polish on the pipes if there is something really stuck on. But for most of the stuff, either a wet rag followed by a clean towel, or the window cleaner.

I use the Honda Spray Cleaner & Polish for general cleaning: http://www.amazon.com/Honda-Spray-Cl.../dp/B00383T62O

For more stubborn stuff on the chrome, I use blue magic: http://www.amazon.com/BlueMagic-400-...5784994&sr=1-1

I use mothers polish on the chrome. Mequiars nxt gen wax On the paint. And mequiars quick detailer to keep it perfect between washes. Not 100% sure quick detailer is the safest/ best for chrome but it works for me... Oh and before I detail I use the California duster to dust it.
