Brasso wadding (Duraglit) works for me.

I use scotchbrite pads on mine to keep it brushed-looking. That basically means unpolishing the bits that get polished 😆

I just used to use Mr Sheen on my Van Nicholas which was recommended somewhere on the internet. Autosol or something similar is mildly abrasive if that is what you want to buff out minor scratches.

Be careful with any abrasive cleaner if you have transfers/stickers on the frame as well.

I used very fine grade wire wool on my to frames when o had one. Workers a treat and keeps the satin look to them to.
