Thanks Charles - Ayep, heard of Never Dull, just never tried it. Can't wait
to get some, try it, and add it to my wall of cleaners - my car cleaner wall
is to my garage as a fly fisherman's collection of fly's are to his creel.
Heh heh

I'm sure most of you have heard of it already and a lot of you probably already have it in the house, but I am so happy with this product that I had to recommend it again.
It's a metal polish called Nevr Dull. It's kind of a cotton-ish wadding soaked in some wonderous chemical. It's available at any hardware store or Lowes/Home Depot kind of place. Very popular at home for cleaning silverware, etc. I've had it in the garage for a long time because it does a great job polishing the aluminum rims of my TR wheels. I've also used it on my stainless exhausts and tail pipes in the past.
I was detailing the Diablo this weekend and was really upset when I finished the wheels (which are chromed). After spending more than an hour and a lot of elbow grease with Mother's Chrome Polish (which had come highly recommended) they still looked hazy and pitted. I was getting irritated with myself because I was afraid I had left corrosive brake dust on them too long and would have to have them re-chromed. Then I noticed the Nevr Dull mentioned being OK for chrome, so I tried it. Amazing!! It took almost no effort, and while rubbing it on the wheel I could actually feel the texture of the wheel change under the wadding (like the plastic glove thing does with clay bars). A little more wiping and the chrome was literally blinding in the sun. Completely mirror clean - no haze, no spots or pitting. Great stuff, and it didn't leave wax-like residue in the holes where the smaller bolts are like the Mother's did.
I also have to recommend the simple vacuum cleaner for cleaning convertible tops. Mine was covered in pollen and stuff and I was trying to figure out how to clean it. Since I already had the vacuum out to do the carpets, I tried the upholstery tool and it did a great job - even pulled the dust I didn't know about out, leaving it nice and black. Took two minutes. Sweet!
Happy motoring!
