Seriously, don't bother with chrome paint - it won't hold up to the elements in a marine environment. Look for a marine specifically for whatever metal you are trying to shine. The aforementioned local business carries Duragloss Marine stuff. Not a boater, so I've never used Duragloss marine stuff. But their automotive items are most excellent!
thanks... everything else looks relatively easy to shine up as I looked at it last night... jsut the rails that go on ontop of the front part of the boat... its incredibly dull!!! I don' tknow that there IS any hope for it. Maybe I will just replace those someday - they appear purely cosmetic. Thanks everyone
