    What Harley says

    Cleaning Black Denim paint:
    ? For heavy deposits on finish:Use a grease cutting dishwashing detergent and a clean H-D wash-mitt (P/N 94760-99). Dilute dishwashing detergent per instructions provided by manufacturer and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
    ? For light deposits on finish: Use ammonia based glass cleaner and a soft H-D Soft-Cloth (HD-94656-98).
    ? For final detailing: Use H-D Gloss with H-D Soft Cloth.

    Good thing about that paint, not too much fawking around.

    I'd use Mr Sheen for chrome but wouldnt polish the paint at all, just wash it and wipe it over with a towel.

    Thanks alot guys, I used windex on the paint and it worked an absolute treat! I use "purple" silver polish for my chrome which I find is the absolute tits when it comes to shining up the bling, if I can give one bit of advice as a HD newcomer it's go grab some of that shit. Its the best metal polish I've used. http://www.californiacustom.com/purple_metal_polish.html
