Chrome Polishing and Hazing

I just cleaned all the chrome off my sisters car with Eagle One's Never Dull and it got rid of everything, nice and clean. But when I did the front grille, it hazed and did not come off. I tried to contine and buff it off and QD'ed, but did not get rid of it. Any suggestions?

the grill is plastic that's painted. Don't use a metal polish on it.

Yep....grille is not chrome. If you look at any rock chips there, you'll see it's just plastic underneath.

but I did all the other plastic trim with chrome on it and it was fine, but it was only at the wing where the acura sign is that had hazing. I know it is plastic but did not see any damage on the other trim part and thought it was fine. Any fix. Dont want to get a new trim there.

How about just leave the chrome polishing on the chrome only?

I had that hazing on a similar material, I tried steam cleaning and it worked.
