I have used No. 7 chrome polish for years and now I can't find it at any of our local stores. I was told Turtle Wax had a similar product but when I tried it it barely took off the water spots. The No. 7 would take off everything including surface rust. Where can I get some or what chrome polish has the same qualities.

Thanks for your time.

Try Brasso... Not only for brass...

It's still available. If you can't get it locally, try amazon.com.

I'm sure you can still get no.7 but the best that I
have ever used is Wenol Metal Polish, it will
work wonders on old chrome parts...

I think No. 7 used to be a Dupont product? Last time I saw it, it was just No. 7 manufactured by the No. 7 Corporation. Looks like some execs made up a Power Point presentation, got a big bank loan to buy the business from Dupont and then were able to write their own bonus checks. The hell with paying back the bank, satisfying customers or whatever. You don't even have to keep the bonuses coming as long as the first ones are big enough.... Sorry for the rant.
