Great Chrome Cleaner: Or Is It?

Hey Guys,
I washed the X today and it has been a few weeks (ok, few months) since I have washed it. Truck washed up ok, needs a polishing and waxing badly. Then came the wheels (chrome). I washed with soap, but still had crud/stains on them. I was out of wheel cleaner and chrome polish, so I started thinking (usually gets me in trouble). I needed something gritty, but not overly gritty. For some reason, the only thing that came to mind was baking soda, so I used it. Worked like a champ with not a lot of elbow grease.

I didn't screw anything up did I?

I don't think you screwed up anything but baking soda is pretty strong for plated chrome. I really hope it won't flake or anything.
