Default Cleaning Chrome trim on 2005 audi a6

Hello everyone,
my audis chrome trimming, mainly the trim around the door and by the trunk are very dull and look oxidized, just not the shinny bright mirror chrome im looking for. Ive used turtle wax chrome polish (did nothing), Eagle One chrome cleaner (still did nothing). Any suggestions on what youve used on your chrome to get the mirror like finish and shine?

thanks!!

hi, had this problem with mine, Cure was polishing mop on a drill, and polishing compounds. The same stuff used for machine polishing alloy, brass etc. Mine had gone dull, oxidised etc, but after a spin with that stuff it came up like new!!!
As you said, I had tried all the other stuff with no luck.
