You could try that spray on mag wheel cleaner stuff. You'd want to make sure that you hose it out properly though.

Any recomend brands? and is it ok if it contains acid of some sort??

[JimX]

I use Meguiar's on my wheels, and yes it does contain some acid. But it's fine on clear coat and I think it's ok for exposed alloy. Read the bottle before buying it to make sure, but I think it'll be ok. But that's why I said to hose it out properly, it won't do much to metal in a few minutes but over a few weeks or months it might start to disolve pits in the metal.

dont think ya wanna spray that acid stuff on ya paint work if it accidently get on thier. Meguires have a couple of brands to choose from. Good luck with it. U can try some metal polish if u can see/reach the end tanks.

Lepperfish do you have any brands in mind???

I just want to get that dull look of my cool and make it shinny again without the hassel of removing it and getting it polished up.

Ive used braso by hand it seems to work on the long bars accros the cool but takes tooo long to do so need a spray on hose off

You're looking for something that probably doesn't exist - a heavy duty spray on clearer, that isn't going to kill your paint, and is going to clean the metal.

If you're serious about it, pull off you're front bumper (its a 20min job), lightly sand it and polish. You'll get a much better result in the end.
