Cleaning chrome window trim on panamera
Hey all what do you guys use to clean the chrome window trim on your panamera? On the panamera is it actual chrome or is it a chrome plating on plastic? I tried using carsoap and water on a cloth to clean it but I still have water spots showing on the chrome, is there anything specific that would take out the water marks?

thanks.

Great question, I've tried a few things...I'm actually considering two options...

1. Wrap them in vinyl
2. get them brushed...

It's actually anodized, so can't be polished.
