Rear bling strip

Gave Lloyd his second bath yesterday with turtlewax car shampoo. I noticed when I was finished that the chrome/silver bling thing- the strip above the boot release was all tarnished.
Has anyone else had this problem? What's the best stuff to clean it with?
Thanks

I used Autoglym Extra Gloss Protection, to return the bling!! Although Im sure any decent polish/wax will do the same.

United Kingdom 2011 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Rimini Red

Hi MM

mine did same recently with Mer shampoo - like a water mark.

Mud soon covered it so no problems!

as its not real chrome I don't want to rub it too hard Wink

DR There's always a way forward!
