    What is the best polish or cleaner to redo these and bring out the luster if any is left? or is there a paint or place to get them redone at a reasonable price? Also how can you get out minor dents and dings?

    Motorcycle guy told me about a "Mothers" metal polish at Walmart for $4.00 a can. Like past wax, very good..seems to be taking the old ozidation right off.... Good Price also. This is not the Chrome Polish. Will try to get a before and after picture to post.
