Flitz or Mothers works good for me. Heard good stuff about never dull but I can't use it. I am retired Navy and have too many memories of polishing sh_t will never dull in my early years. The motto was: "Run it may - Shine it must".

While it's still fresh after being professionally polished, now is the time to apply Zoop Seal. Supposedly the stuff lasts for two to three years. Otherwise, you'll be repolishing every few weeks.

btw... you can buy the T-Shirt material in the Paint Isle at your local Home Improvement Center. I use that stuff all the time for paints and stains. Good stuff. Never thought to use it for chrome polish. I may have to give that a shot.

Man get it chrome and you don't have to worry about these things. Just take the time it will take to polish your bike to keep it looking good by your hourly salary and it's not worth it IMHO opinon. Now to answer your question Never Dull is good stuff.
