I've used Harley-Davidson's chrome polish. But Flitz works better.

I found on the interior chrome that had aged and had gunk on it that magic eraser worked the best. Worked up my nerve to do the good quality chrome and it worked great on it too.

Google "magic eraser" (it's a Mr. Clean product).

Works great for cleaning vinyl too!
