I've always used vinegar for hard water deposits, sometimes you have to leave it on for awhile,(put it on a papertowel, wrap around faucet or knob). I don't know if it will help your streaking, but I bet it won't make it worse. Maybe baking soda, on a toothbrush, scrub around on streaks? These are both non-toxic. Good luck. Sounds like the you had a chemical reaction on the chrome, with the lime away. Check the label, or call a car restoration shop, they might know what to do with chrome problems. Hot rod shop, too.

There are products (Gel Gloss, for one) that are made for polishing chrome and different surfaces to shine them back up. It is a temporary fix, you'll need to reapply every once in a while.

It's basically liquid wax, just like you'd use on the car.

Thanks for the responses!

I've looked up some information about car chrome online. It seems I may be stuck with my streaks. I'll check out the Gel Gloss, however. Maybe it can offer a temporary fix.
