How should I keep my chrome looking new?
I bought a new chrome front bumper and put it on my truck a month ago. Is there anything special I should use on it to keep it looking good for as long as possible?

A coat of wax every few months to help prevent rusting and pitting.

 Mothers, Meguiars, or other chrome cleaner/sealer should work.
