Anyone with chrome wheels. In here!!

Just wondering what kind of chrome polish you are using and what kinds of results you are getting. I'm always looking to try new, better products, so share some reccomendations. Pics are always a good thing too.

I use glass cleaner and turtle wax chrome polish. The polish acts like a wax for them and keeps it cleaner a little longer

I used some Mothers Mag and Aluminum Cleaner on mine about a week ago and the results were unreal. My wheels had been neglected for sometime since it had been in storage for a few years and the Mothers Cleaner brought them back to life. They look a million times better.

Meguiars All Wheel and Tire cleaner when washing and when I polish them I use Mothers chrome polish. Sometimes I use the power ball sometimes I just put it on by hand.
