I have an old bottle of Revere Stainless Steel Pot and Pan cleaner and a container of Bar Keeper's Friend that I use for polished and chromed surfaces. The Revere product is liquid and it's good for first time cleaning on old chrome. Bar Keeper's is a powder that's used with a damp rag and I like to use that for touch up but it's pretty powerful stuff and will clean well with elbow grease. Both products use a combination of abrasives and acid to clean and create the finished effect. Revere's packaging is different so I can't really tell if today's version is the same, but you should be able to find them at local box retailers as well as Amazon.
