Chrome Fixtures
If not properly maintained, chrome fixtures can become dull and cloudy. After cleaning a bathroom, you want your chrome fixtures to sparkle! For blinding brilliance, make a paste of baking soda and dishwashing liquid. Apply this to your chrome fixtures and rub clean with a cloth. Warm vinegar will also make your bathroom shine. Here's an additional bathroom cleaning tip: To clean stains from your bathroom chrome and tile, use baby oil! Wipe off with a cloth diaper for a lint free shine.
I'm going to try the baby oil trick see if it helps!!

This is a difficult problem to avoid altogether. Waterspots are minerals in the water that remain when the water evaporates. Removing the minerals is key but not easy or inexpensive. A way I know of is reverse osmosis water treatment but as I said not easy or inexpensive. A water softener will make it worse not better. Drying the faucet with say a paper towel each time it is wetted is a fix but I do not see it as practical.

I agree with the answer about WD40. I use it all the time for my stainless steal sink in my kitchen. I clean offices and houses. WD40 is a good water repellent. Though I would spray it on the rag or cleaning towel then apply after you clean the sink. Also if you do get water spots on your faucets just use vinegar it will remove the water spots then wipe it dry.

I know this sounds weird, but spray a thin coat of WD-40 on your faucets, the water will run right off.

I use car wax on my fixtures and shower walls, plus a shower squeege to knock the excess water off the walls..and I wipe off excess water on the fixtures afterwards....

Vinegar takes mineral build up off. I like the WD 40 idea to keep it off, I'll try that.

By water spots, I assume you mean "Limescale"? Any acid will quickly remove it. You can choose from: Vinegar (Acetic acid), lemon juice (Citric acid), Tartaric acid, or "Spirits of salt" (Hydrochloric acid, diluted).
