    I use "Coopers chrome & glass cleaner", but I've only seen it in the SoCal area. Kinda looks like "pepto bismal", but works great with no scratching. If you're old enough you might remember some stuff called
    "glass wax", that came in a qt. can that I swear is the same stuff. I've used Zepher 40 alum. polish on my chrome bumper and could see swirls from the abrasive.

    Mothers also makes a chrome polish. It works quite well.

    When I was in dump trucks, the company provided a barrel of sulfuric acid solution that we mixed with water and applied with a regular long-handled nylon brush. Did great on the aluminum, minimum effort. Just be sure to wear protective gear and don't get it on the glass. We generally used Mother's for everything else.

    There is nothing quite like having a shiny truck smiling at you in the morning.
