Polishing chrome

Hey guys...i just recently put my new wheels on and have cleaned them regularly by just buffing them and removing brake dust with a chamoi (sp?)
Whats the easiest way to clean and make chrome shine? thanks

I use Mothers chrome polish and in my opinion it's the best Chrome polish i've used thus far.

In the past I would use a buffing pad that attaches to my drill and a slab of Mothers. Always gets a great shine.

Wash them like you would your paint and than wax them like you would your paint.

If they're clear coated then there is nothing you can do (so the lady at Heavy Metal Polish told me).

I bought the Medium Heavy Metal Polish online and they are an awesome company to deal with at fair prices.

I used it on my chrome 22s, chrome stepups, chrome bumpers, chrome grill surround, billet grill and SS camaro style exhaust tips and it did wonders in all areas.
