Right, well for those of you that have seen my e30 its nothing special, but god love her, the doris' mum wants me and my e30 for her wedding car.... which means that between now and may i have to try and clean, repair and keep it reasonably clean.
I know that a lot of people dont like the chrome and de-chrome their cars, I however dont mind it and figure (especially for a wedding car) if its on there, it might as well shine. Its sort of shiney but got like water marks on it. i cant really describe what I mean so it might be worth posting pictures but are their any products that are good for removing the tarnishing on the chrome and bringing back the shine. Would a bit of rubbing compound do it????
Any thoughts or ideas please let me know.

I wondered how long before the magpie like cliffybabe would be able to resist the siren song of a mention of shiny chrome and figured it wouldnt take to long.
I will invest in a tube of this shortly.
Thanks guys.
