I have a can of this stuff. It's old and I can't remember why I bought it. Can you tell me what its purpose is? If, as you say, you use it after polishing compound (abrasive polishing, removing oxidation and imperfections, making things shiney) and go over it with paste wax (for protecting the shine made by polishing)..... what's the Nu Finish for? I guess I always thought it was the wax, and therefore using a paste wax over it would be redundant?

Thanks.

As for the original question - I have something in my box of polishes/waxes that is specifically called chrome polish. I got it in a motorcycle shop years ago on the recommendation of a Harley owner friend of mine. Auto parts stores sell specific products for polishing chrome, you might check there too.
