For items like kettles that don't get filthy,
Hot water with Lemon or distilled white vinegar will remove limescale from chrome and stainless steel.
For items such as cookers that get very dirty,
~Wash surfaces with hot, soapy water (dishwashing liquid is fine) and a nonabrasive sponge, working both with and against the grain (yes, stainless steel has a grain) to lift buildup. Dry with a towel. Don’t be alarmed if appliances look duller than usual; you have just removed kitchen grease and residual cleaning products.
~Apply a layer of stainless-steel polish according to the package directions, wiping off any excess immediately. (available at any supermarket)
~With a clean, dry towel, buff the polish into the surface, going with the grain, until it shines and the towel comes away dry.

Metal cleaners... most are okay, but you can buy specialist stainless steel and chrome ones.... BUT!!!! the secret is to give the finished article a very thin coating of Baby oil afterwards (a cleaning industry tip!)... this prevents a build up of further 'dulling' and makes it easier to clean again later.

Remove stubborn marks with a soft cloth and a mild detergent, then dry off and, finally, using a piece of kitchen roll, wipe over with a drop of baby oil. The baby oil removes all the little smears, finger marks, etcetera and leaves a really lovely finish.

White vinegar is great for removing limescale and shining up stainless steel sinks.

Window cleaner spray , the cheaper the better- then dry with a paper towel. I think it's the alcohol in these products that gives a smear-free shine , always works in our kitchen.

Clean any build-up with a standard household cleaner, then buff away any streaks with a slightly damp towel. This works for glass too, though most of the time you can skip the cleaner.
