Check the concours forum. I think they like simichrome polish. There is stuff that comes in cotton wadding that works good to get rust and tough dirt as well.

i happen to have a tube of it sitting here on my key board
"A soft paste polish for chrome, silver, aluminum...virtually and metal!"

Not quite on topic but.. If you have some rusty chrome like exhaust chrome tips, use crumpled aluminum foil and water. Cleans rusty chrome like magic.

Wash rusty chrome with Pepsi. Drink the Coke.
