wd40 and steel wool, will bring them back to shine like no other, then polish them with a good chrome polish and they will look amazing

yeah just use a medium thickness, density whatever you want to call it, and wd 40, it should take it right off, whatever you do DO NOT use scotch brite, the steel wool is softer than the chrome and will not scratch the scotch brite is harder than the chrome and will eat the shit out of it.
