I have said about Goddards cloth's before in a couple of polishing threads  ;)

funny as i have just bought a couple more from sainsbury's today £2.25 each

they work very well in bringing up old chrome after a wash or peek

you can even try it on plastics - hard plastic work better as some time it warms up some softer plastics and spreads it a bit - but try it out on different plastics

for best results keep sealed in a bag after each use

happy polishing all  ;)


some thing else you may like to try is TURTLE WAX ~ BUG &  TAR
This has a degreaser built in and a polish to finish off
it's a white liquid that you can use a sponge to clean over chrome - all of the bike it you like

good points - it will clean off grease - polish up powder coat - clean white paint

things you have to watch out for - on decals if rubbed to hard it can rub them away - careful on any decals that are peeled up any where as it can some times get under them - wear gloves as it can degrease sensitive skin

go buy a bottle and try it out - make life easier  8)

cheers B  ;)
