Best stuff i found is in a silver can and you can get it just about anywhere. It has cotton in it that ie soaked with some cleaner... I forgot the name but go to any auto store or wallymart and loook for a silver can around $6.

I have some down stairs somewhere.. I'll try and find it and let you know.

Windex if it's already clean and shiny. The guy who did all my chrome told me to only use windex on it or it would scratch. 6 months and lots of miles later it all still looks like new.

That's the one I was talking about.... Eagle one in a black and silver can...

It's inexpensive for the 6 to 7 bucks at least to try it out.

Get Eagle one and the mothers and you be the judge and let us know?

Thanks
jim

and yes, Don't but it at wallymart.... They are a big corporation that likes to go into small towns and push out the little mom and pop shops who are just making a living and then take over with cheap prices....and as soon as everyone else is out of business they own the town and jack up the prices..
