think baby oil works, or is that just for stainless steel?

I think I have seen Anthea use baby oil before, but don't use it until I get back up on here, don't want you to muck it up - hope it goes well.

Cleaning Chrome

i) Wipe with vinegar, rinse with water, then dry. (Good for removing hard water deposits.) Or, shine chrome fixtures with baby oil and a soft cloth. (Good for removing soap scum off taps etc.)

ii) 3 tablespoons baking soda and water - Mix the baking soda and water to make a paste. Apply then rinse.
