Everything else, especially spraycans, won't get you a chrome-like look.
Another product that's come up in my searches (that I haven't gotten to try myself) is Kosutte Ginsan. Looks better than Alclad II, actually.

Just watched a video of kosutte Ginsan; that stuff looks incredible. I'm going to look for it now because it seems like something that should be kept around the house at all times.
