DUNEDEMON Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 Steel wool lubricated with some glass cleaner works great...Do NOT use a scotchbrite pad, it will scratch the chrome. Quote
jeenyus Posted July 15, 2004 Author Report Posted July 15, 2004 huh!! glass cleaner like windex?? Quote
Lanky Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 to polish them I got one word for you...MOTHERS Quote
frocashmoney24 Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 glass cleaner like windex does work with steel wool, but i love simple green cleaner, takes off everything, and theres a polish called blue magic, the stuff works frigen awesome Quote
DUNEDEMON Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 huh!! glass cleaner like windex?? Yes, you just need it for some lubrication for the steel wool, once you have all the crap off the pipes polish them how you would normally. Quote
tats4life Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 what do you guys use to polish your pipes? i'm tired of using mothers it doesn't seem to last that long, because every time i wash my bike with simple green it takes it off...... Dune what do u use? Quote
nickxc Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 I used mothers for years then I tried turtle wax chrome polishe and that was ok but I got some 3m majic wadding and that stuff is great. It comes in a chrome can and it is a wad of cotton soaked in polish you just rip some off and polish with it then use a cloath to take it off. the stuff works awsome!! Quote
MULLET~BOY Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 simple green and steal wool then use some mothers then use rubbing alcahole Quote

Dune what do u use? The Shearer's are so new I have not needed to polish them yet, I just keep them clean. On my old T-5's I used this stuff called "Wenol" it's made in Germany I think and it comes in 2 toothpaste looking tubes, one is blue and the other is orange. Quote
Bird of Flames Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 Another Vote for mothers, that stuff is god in my book. Quote

silveradohd Posted July 15, 2004 Report Posted July 15, 2004 I use simichrome polish. it does not take off the blue, but polishes very well. I found this product @ Orchard Hardware supply in Southern California. I know home depot does not sell it. Quote
