cleaning tips

does anyone know the best way to shine up the chrome effect plastic trim around the windows of a 1988 740. spent all sunday polishing and waxing and used shoe polish to restore the mirrors and bumpers. Just this trim left.

Can,t help with the plastic/chrome trim but i wax my car with Collinite 476S. After the initial boot polish to the bumpers i wax them with it too , but polish it off before it dries and they keep that "new look" without any water marks for ages :thumbs_up:

thanks for that tip,I didnt think of sealing the bumpers with wax. good idea. tried t-cut on the silver trim,it works a bit but its still not shining. probably try some sort of metal polish.

i would advise against metal polish, or any abrasives, as the chrome coating is pretty thin, you will expose the white plastic underneath the chrome plate. paul
