LUSTER LACE, POLISH STRIPS

So you get the little strips with the stuff?...or is that something you came up with....my problem is that ..right now they are no chrome..but I guess it will clean them up ..right??? and thanks for the quick response as usual..

The strips come with the polish right in them. The work on chrome real well, the cad plating on the older bikes is a bit more difficult to clean. I have had pretty good results with the nevr dull cotton wadding on those.

I like these. And there are other good uses for these like polishing chrome push rod tubes, spot light bars. They are durable.

It's a labor of love to clean the spokes.

Especially on a lift !
I find if I do them on a regular basis with a piece of toweling and some pledge that they are real easy to maintain and always look good.

(here we go with the pledge again

).
