    Quick question

    I am polishing up my rig and want to verify materials. Just by sight I am assuming
    1) Stainless steel tubular steps?
    2) Chrome grill?
    3) Chrome rims?
    4) Stainless Steel exhaust tips?
    5) Plastic bumpers front and rear, trim on bed, sideview mirrors, headlight, tail light and fogs?

    Feel free to suggest any good products for detailing the parts mentioned

    Thanks
    RR

    1) Stainless steel tubular steps? - CHROMED METAL (they aren't steps, their nurfs! lol)
    2) Chrome grill? - CHROMED PLASTIC
    3) Chrome rims? - CHROMED ALUMINUM
    4) Stainless Steel exhaust tips? - CHROMED METAL (Unless its aftermarket)
    5) Plastic bumpers front and rear, trim on bed, sideview mirrors, headlight, tail light and fogs? - F'in CRAPPY PLASTIC



    for the chrome, I use neverdull, then top it off with zaino z2. for any smooth surface (paint, chrome, glass, heads/tails, etc) I use the full zaino selection of goodies. For the crappy rough plastic, I have it smoothed & painted

    But anyway, lots of good info in the detailing section for suggetsions on whatever path you decide to take!

    Thanks 356, I could'nt stump you this time LOL Here is what I got so far but can't start because I messed my back up digging some drainage pipes and backfilling concrete LOL Zaio, z2, z5 for the paint, Armorall that needs dumping for the interior, hendrick vinyl and leather protectant. Rims- eagle one wire cleaner put some on the explorer and my wife was shocked/upset because she thought I went out and bought brand new rims, topped that puppy off with some mother's chrome cleaner. For the Harley, got me some wenol blue, some of the harley guys think it is better than the harley cleaner but who knows till I get out of this bed LOL
