SpitfireAddick Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I believe my Spitfire to have chrome bumpers (not Stainless Steel replacement), was wandering if there's any special chrome cleaner that not only cleans the bumper but also leaves a protective layer or something?Does anyone use anything specific?Thanks James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Normal car polish should work just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIMPUS Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I've used vinegar and what i use the last few time is Autosol Liquid Chrome Cleaner :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpitfireAddick Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share Posted April 5, 2015 It's just that I've got those little stain circle things that are difficult to get off so I didn't know if normal car shampoo would work. I'll give them a go, cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegt6 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 For cleaning, Autosol and scotch-pad. For protection, like Clive suggests, a normal wax based polish should do fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t go near chrome with any kind of abrasive, either the cleaner or the cloth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
