Many polishing products are abrasive to one degree or another although the compound may feel soft and smooth, and, although I am unfamiliar with the product you have used, I suspect this may be the case. Here's the website for Autosol.

What part of the M90 did you polish?

For chrome plastic, I use Turtle Wax Scratch and Swirl Remover.

There isn't much chrome on the M90, just the woofer rings and everything else is a fake "painted" on chrome looking application that can not be polished because it is paint.

Tweeter bezels are not chrome, that is paint.

Ive never seen chrome paint. I mean i believe its paint and all, and ive seen paint that claims to be chrome but never paint that actually looks like chrome. Does anybody know what they used or how to duplicate it? Or is the decals the way to go?

I've already mailed out the decals to chanceafrica.

For everyone else, I had been meaning to setup a special area of my webstore to showcase and allow automated purchases of Erics labels but due to one health issue after another, I've been seriously delayed and having to prioritize things in life. I don't sell, nor do I expect to sell them by the dozens, so it hasn't been escalated to the top of the to-do list. Still hope to get it done sooner rather than later. In the meantime, please just PM. Thanks.
