    I have several just re-chromed bumpers (Thanks Dano!) Most of the "chrome wax" I see have polishers in them. What do you guys use to preserve/protect chrome without the polish?

    I am going to try Turtle Wax "Pro Max Wax", Graphene Liquid Wax. They claim its better than carnauba wax and easier than ceramic. 71QBwoeuO7L._AC_SL1500_.jpg
    I will spray BOESHIELD T-9 on the back.

    I have used Rejex on chrome wheels with excellent results.Should also work well on bumpers I suppose.

    The Mother's CMX ceramic spray is good value for money in my opinion. The coating is quite durable if you prep the surface correctly first.

    I use Zaino C.S. ( clear seal ) on my chrome , well actually the whole car. Wipe it on and then leave it alone. Good stuff last a long time and I daily drive the car.

    Thanks! Since I have 3 bumpers to do I might do different stuff on each!

    Any “wax” should be fine, especially since most of us aren’t daily driving our cars in bad weather.
