Looking for some help and advice on how to clean sunroof parts.

Surface tarnish.

Thanks

Chrome can be cleaned with aluminum foil and Coca Cola, follow up with a microfiber towel.

I've tested a couple of different metal polish brands... they all work the same. Wouldn't agonize over which one to get. Flitz is as good as any.

I think those parts are anodized. I wouldn't use Flitz on anodized aluminum. A good cleaner wax should clean it up.

All cleaned.
I have left some "patina" after all it's a 30year old car.

Used wire wool oooo grade and some autosol

They look chrome plated to me RS. I did not know anodizing could create a high luster finish. TY for info.
