Cleaning chrome wheels

My wheels have some spots on them I cant seem to get clean. I am using TurtleWax Chrome Polish and Rust Remover along with a Mothers Powerball Mini, and it gets the rest of the wheels looking really well, it just the spots in the corners I cant seem to get (I dont think the powerball is getting all the way in there).

Is there any kind of chemical or cleaner I can use on them that wont damage the chrome finish, or another type of polish I should be using?

That second pic looks like dirt. If it is indeed dirt, Never Dull will take that crap off with no effort whatsoever.

The chrome isnt coming off, but it is pitted. Some spots I got all the dirt out and it doenst look bad at all.

I believe it's Eagle One who makes it. As stated above, it's in an aluminum container with black markings. You can find it at Wal-Mart or any auto parts store for cheap. It really is some good stuff.

My wheels always shine like a diamond when I use this:



It used to make my polished aluminum wheels look like new again, and it works great on chrome too.
