I've used it. It works real great. My pipes on the ST were pretty dang blue when I bought it. After using the blue away you would never know. You'll never bring the chrome back to 100% perfect, like new. I'd rate mine as about 95%. How you use it is just like polish, you rub it on with pressure, then wipe it off with a dry rag. Keep repeating until the blue is gone. This is relatively time consuming. It may take an hour per pipe to do it.

321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

I actually like the blueing myslef as well.

I think it gives it that, "Yes, I do ride this bike." look.

I recently spent over 4 hours polishing my stock before reassembly. They looked fsantastic. Turned blue before I could even get the idle and mix adjusted. Thinking about trying to match for paint now, it's pretty.
