I would use Klasse All In One. Love that stuff on chrome. you need to use a chemical type cleaner. Do not use an abrasive type cleaner.

i couldnt find tthese products anywhere so i used so chrome finish or something it helped a little but there are a lot of scratches and dents and it isnt shining as much as it should. any other suggestions?

Well part of your problem is the fact that it's not real chrome. That piece is actually plastic, the chrome is just an overlay.

If it's way too pitted, your only option maybe is to find another chrome piece off of ebay or junkyard. You could also have the piece sanded down and have it color matched to your car which is a popular around here.

I wonder if Lincoln has them new still?

Yeah, you're not going to be able to remove scratches from the chrome surface. Best you can do is shine it up some.

www.detailedimage.com is a place to buy klasse AIO.

To make it EXTRA easy, here is the direct link:

Not cheap, but I like it. I have a 1000ml bottle of it.
