Did a quick Google search regarding Quick-Glo, came up with the following message from schwinnbike.com, dated 15 Oct 06:

ITEM IS BACK IN STOCK UNDER THE NAME CHROMAX! I USED SOME YESTERDAY, AND ALL IS WELL. CALL MEMORY LANE CLASSICS TO RE-STOCK (419)832-3040 M-F 9-5 EST. 8 oz. $7.50 Plus ship.

Hopefully this helps out those who are looking for it.

Now, while I've got your attention: Does anyone remember a product from the 70's called Rim Strip? I can only describe this stuff as having the color and consistancy of rubbing compound, but very rough and abrasive, almost like rubbing compound had been mixed with sandbox sand. We used it at the bike shop to clean up Schwinn and Raleigh rims from bikes that junior had let sit out in the rain for the past six months. Nothing I'd use on delicate chrome, but boy did it do a job on Schwinn and Raleigh rims.
