Ok Bug,I have been into full custom hot rod Harleys for years until I fell in love with the Busa.
I am used to having chrome up the gazoo,and still have a bike like this.
The best product I have use is the S100.You basically hose your bike down,spray the s100 all over it,let it sit,then hose it off.I like to lightly blow dry with my compressor and then maybe a chamois after.
This stuff is great!
The other thing that I believe that works just as good,and is prolly close to the same ingredients (although s100 doesnt print them out) is simple green.
You use it the same way and IMO,works just as good.
Your chrome will gleam.
I just believe that it will remove the wax on your bike so you may have to re-wax.
HtH's
BTW,ther will be no extra effort on the chrome rims...trust me.
The only other thing I may do sometimes is to actually rub some of the areas with my bare hands after applying to remove any heavy residue..
