Haha cheers nev, must be about 6 years old that pipe if not more. Shows how looking after your chrome pays off, always polished when needed, never any rust or dulling! biggrin

Just had the whole system off for the build up and re-pimp, so thought i'd polish everything up again. wink

My opinion ofcourse, but always go with autosol, always. Tried various other options over the years and nothing beats the finish of Autosol IMO.

Well aye, Autosol is good, but a fair bit dearer than T-Cut, I always use lashings of that, then sheepskin buffer on drill for mine.

Something I don't understand mind you, is why they don't come like that when new, instead of the brushed aluminium look you get from DEP.
