Dollar General brand lemon pledge. Very cheap, works like a charm, and leaves your bike lemony fresh inbetween rides.

Never dry wipe chrome or you'll get scratches!&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Wash with soap/water, apply&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;chrome polish, and shine using&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;a microfiber cloth or&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;baby diaper. (Clean baby diapers work best.)&nbsp\\; Windex leaves a nice shine, but it strips polish, leaving chrome exposed to the elements.

Ditto on Mother's. I didn't believe in chrome polish until I tried Mother's with a microfiber cloth.
