i saw this on an episode of mythbusters a while back, and i figured it'd be a good time to try, but tin or aluminum foil and coca cola works perfect. i wished i'd done a before and after like bluegrass did, it works amazing, the aluminum is soft enough to not scratch the chrome, and the acid eats off any and al dirt deposits and brake dust. i took off about a year of crap off them, and looked brand new

One of the reasons that my GF has been using BKF for years is that it is not abrasive. At least not at any level obvious to her, and she's pretty sharp about mechanical things in general. She'd have noticed.

Folks, another super easy way I discovered was using a Brillo pad with Oxy Clean (std Brillo pad will prolly work just as well)
