Spay a oven cleaner on chrome - wash off

peek polish - better than AutoRsol

use peek with a damp/wet cloth for a finer finish

Turttle wax "

Everyone recommends Peek if the chrome's in  good condition already  :)

Just to add, i find the liquid Peek (Tin) better than the paste (tube)

I use the liquid on minty chrome and paste on the duller/dirty chrome+alloy.
