I thought chrome cleaner might be a bit abrasive. If so, just use it
occasionally, but so far as possible use soapy water, then dry the chrome
parts and apply wax polish. Does that make sense?

Best wishes all,

Brillo pads. Seriously - it doesn't scratch, because chromium is
extremely hard.

Not at all. It really does work extremely well. I was first given
thetip when I had to clean some chrome instrument bezels, though in
that case you have to be careful not to scratch the glass.

For something a little more gentle, try T-cut, or Brasso.
Mike.
