    Smile Chrome

    What is good on new chrome that just needs protected, not really polished?

    AIO? or should I use chrome polish?

    AIO isn't really used for protection. Clean it up and keeping a maintainence schedule would be the best solution. For chrome polish, I like Mother's Billet.

    Still micro abrasive. If it needs cleaned, then go for a metal polish, just lightly cleaned, AIo and follow with a sealer (EXP, SG, etc) and that will be better. I have been trhough tons of chrome threads and the products as well. One I found I do like is the Megs NXT, slightly abrasive and works well.

    I usually throw some klasse sg on clean chrome, that stuff can be used on pretty much anything and it last long.

    you can use any pure sealant to protect, even consider one of the wheel protection products. (DP Wheel Glaze, Poorboys Wheel Sealant) They can be used in different areas with great success.

    Anything by Mothers. They seem to have metal cleaning and polishing down pat. That's all I use.
