Is there a product that gets rid of exhaust residue on chrome bumpers?

Well, I just wanted to know what works best. So far I have everything that has been suggested so I will have to find out myself. Thanks

Try the mineral spirits first to cut the hydrocarbons. Wipe with clean dry rag. Then hit it with the chrome polish.

Chrome polish works great for me. Then a coat of wax.
