cloudy chrome window hardware

Does anyone know of a good cleaner for the chrome window trim on pre 74 911's? My trim is not pitted but it has cloudy circles all over it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

David

I use Simichrome polish on mine, but it is not discolored at all. You might try something like this if you are trying to remove some cloudiness or staining.

Try some FLITZ, works well on many metal finishes and always follow directions.

I use a product called "Brite Shine". It's designed specifically for chrome polishing, in particular automotive; however it's great for all sorts of chrome, kitchen ware, shower heads etc
