The original for more than 60 years

The metal polish with cult status which has been part of HAPPICH's product portfolio since 1950.

Tradition - Originality - Quality

SIMICHROME

As a registered trademark, SIMICHROME® has stood for innovation and the high quality standards of original HAPPICH products for more than six decades as the world’s finest polish.

It is somewhat like the story of the few truly world-famous film stars of German origin: some followed the call to Hollywood in the 1950s and 1960s, became successful there, and later returned to Germany as celebrities. A similar path could now describe the metal polish SIMICHROME® from HAPPICH, the Wuppertal-based specialist outfitter for utility and special-purpose vehicles. Developed and produced by HAPPICH in Wuppertal in the 1950s, this metal miracle paste began its success story in the USA.

There, in the USA, the spirit of the dynamic 1960s was in full swing, and a motorcycle brand called Harley-Davidson became a chrome-shining symbol of freedom and independence for a young generation around the world. That was the opportunity for SIMICHROME® from HAPPICH. The metal paste quickly became indispensable for true Harley fans and remains almost a must-have to this day for caring for their iconic two- and three-wheelers.

Application tips: If needed, first clean the surface to be polished with a soft terry cloth to remove residue and streaks. Then apply SIMICHROME® - usually a pea-sized amount is enough - and rub it in with gentle pressure using a cotton cloth. No subsequent polishing is required. A lasting shine appears immediately.
