Ok guys so whats the best thing I can use to really bring a shine to the chrome bumpers on my trusty MK2 cortina? They are showing a little surface rust so need some TLC before they really go bad, any ideas?

Yep, Solvol is hard to beat. If the rust goes a bit deeper than the surface, one of those brass pan-scourers works very well at removing the rust -- give the affected area a spray of WD40 first, then scrub. Then polish up with Autosol.
