Crome polish is chrome polish....

I've been using regular ole Turtle Wax Chrome Polish with Rust Remover for years....

Seems to work as well as anything else...

Wet rag followed by a dry rag. If I get a stain or a boot scuff or something I use some turtle wax polishing compound to try to get it off. Otherwise I don't sweat it.

If the chrome is in good shape for general cleaning I use Pledge furniture polish on chrome and paint.
If its really dirty (road grime, brake dust) I use Blue Magic.
NevrDull works better at removing oxidation or bugs/tar.
Semichrome to polish out really fine scratches.

Just be careful, new chrome isn't as durable as the old chrome. Never dull works good for those small little rust spots that start to come through on Chit chrome like custom chrome or V-twin products use. On genuine harley stuff (that usually has good quality chrome) I just use windex streak free window cleaner and a clean cloth.
