Dear All,

I have just purchased an Eames DKR-2 with original Girrard bikini cover to add to my collection. However the chrome on the effiel base and in places around the bottom part of the seat is in need of a bit of a clean/polish up, there are also a couple of small rust pitting marks.

Can any-one suggest a good product or products which will do the job? That I can buy in the UK?

Thanks,

Autosol
is the best chrome cleaner I've found.

Fine Grade Steel Wool
will remove any pitting, but otherwise just a soft cloth to clean.

I agree with Robert,
Autosol is a great product. I used to clean my parents' car's chrome bumpers with it!
