any good ones out there? I had a friend tell me to use 0000 steel wool.
Decent chrome polish for slightly rusted bumper...

I'd try Eagle One Nevrdull before resorting to steel wool.
Forget the steel wool. When in doubt, start with something not abrasive enough and go towards the more abrasive direction until it does the job and the rust is gone.
Blue Magic works good and is easy to find, a little pricey these days but what isn't. 3M chrome and metal polish is good too but more expensive and harder to find.
Even the cheap Turtle Wax chrome polish at Walmart does the job but with a lot more elbow grease required. To my knowledge steel wool is a major no-no on chrome.
The polishes work, you just have to put in the effort, bad news is chrome bumpers rust from the inside out, eventually a hole will form.

#0000 steel wool dripped in mothers mag polish. If it has rust, its way beyond neverdull. If it was just greenish or corroded, then the other less agressive ways would work fine.
I really liked Blue Magic on my motorcycle chrome, and it had pretty good rust stains. The Turtle Wax works ok but takes more effort like said previously.

I know it sounds weird but coke and aluminum foil kicks butt.

coke does not sound weird. It has phosphoric acid in it and that is most likely the part that removes the rust. I use hydroflouric acid on any rust i have. Either straight or diluted like when i wash stuff. Any good pressure wash guy should be able to spray it off for you. Check this out.
