Water Stains on Chrome

Does anybody have a good solution as to how to remove water stains from chrome trim.
I tried rubbing alcohol, did nothing.
My next step is Magic Eraser.

You may want to try a mixture of vinegar and water. I don't know the amounts, but try 50/50 solution. Then more vinegar if that doesn't work. Hope that helps...

It's probably some sort of vacuum metalized plastic.
It's the piece above the rear license plate

Do you have a clay bar at your disposal? Since you just got the car... probably not.

I use, Mequires Plastic X, which a scartch and swirl remover on diffrent types of plastic's, I apply it by hand with a wax aplicator pad and really work it into the chrome/plastic grill on my TSX, and MDX. I found i get great results by using it.

Hope this helps.
