Default Chrome Wheel Maintenance?

Can anyone suggest a product for maintaining chrome wheels? I currently use Windex which seem to work well, but, I am not sure if it is the best solution for chrome...

Thanks in advance for your input...

Well, Mothers makes a pretty good chrome polish and Meguires has a good product as well.

It may sound strange but I use Royal Simonize fiberglass boat wax. It's a soft cream thats easy to use and works great on stainless and chrome and has no abrasives. Do not use it on your cars painted surfaces though, since the solvents in it are too aggressive for paint.

Leaves a nice hard wax finish that helps keep the brake dust from accumulating and makes it easier to wash off. I also use it on my stainless exhaust (Corsas) and aluminum suspension components.
