I have just polished up my GEN 1 as i have got a day off and i am bored. Also GEN 1's are all the talk on here today so i thought i would treat mine to a polish up.I have never used Brasso before and have heard people saying it is really good. Well i can honestly say it is great. Brings the chrome up nice. Dont know if you could use it on a frame that has never gone through the oxalic/coke and then autosol process first but i would recommend it highly for getting the chrome to gleam nice. NOT SURE IF IT TAKES SMALL SCRATCHES OUT? CANT REALLY TELL.However.....well impressed.

if you buy a rusty one you will know its not a snide, as it will take years to get rusty, unless the snide makers know how to put rust on
