From: Blabber on 7 Sep 2007 12:49 Autosol is abrasive and does scratch and will ultimately dull chrome. Try Never Dull wadding polish or try using a polishing compound with less abrasive first before using Autosol. Use the Autosol only if other compounds aren't up to the task, and if you do use it, follow up with lighter compounds to help clean up the damage from the Autosol.
