Welcome to the site!

How well do you want to clean it? Complete tear down or a surface polish? Pictures always help. If you have trouble posting send them here:

Any 10 dollar plus Chrome polish product from a major supplier will be fine. Use micro fiber towels and a wax matching the polish brand. While the polish/wax combo's are tempting until the shell is clean you are just making waxed in scratches. Not ideal.

If not tearing down the drum and just polishing avoid getting excise polish near/under the lugs.

Hope this helps.
