Thumbs up Nothing outshines better........


Best I've found so far and I've tried THEM ALL.....it'll also shine chrome like nobody's business. It'll shine it so well you'll see the freakin blemishes that you never even knew were there.

I agree...it shines chrome like nobody's business, but I wouldn't use it to clean the fins on the jugs as it tends to leave a residue in the powder coat that is difficult to remove.
