I use Nanowax and it leaves no residue on the black at all. They also make a nanowax soap for cleaning off dirt and bugs. Both great products IMO.

Griot's garage chrome polish paste works good with a little elbow grease. Haven't tried many others.

Semichrome on the wheels? Never thought of that. I have used it in the past on older bikes and worked well but have found different thing I like now.

On the wheels isn't there some sort of clear coat or something over the Alluminum or is it bare?

2010 SG wheels.

Thanks

Mimo.
