Toothpaste? White vinegar? Baby oil? Household cleaner?
Thanks, Paul |

Paul,
I have been using Simichrome polish for many years on both my 914 and my motorcycles. On the foglight grilles, I use a soft, cotton diaper for the easy-to-get-to areas, and Q-tips (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) (yes, I'm afraid so) in the little nooks and crannies.

QUOTE(1970 Neun vierzehn @ May 17 2013, 07:17 PM)  Paul, I have been using Simichrome polish for many years on both my 914 and my motorcycles.

Paul Wonder where Simichrome, Chemical Guys and Blue Magic fall in the abrasiveness scale. I started off with some toothpaste which is working to a certain extent. My grills are gone to the point where soapy water isn't doing anything, apple cider vinegar did nothing as well, neither did the household spray cleaner. Paul |
