Unhappy Eagle one wheel cleaner may have ruined my wheels! :(

So yesterday I was washing my car and I decided to try using eagle one all wheel cleaner as it said it was safe for all wheels (including alloy and chrome which I believe mine are) and afterwards it left what looks like hard water stains on the chrome lip of my rims and it looks awful and NOTHING I've tried will make it come off.

Does anybody know what could work? I don't know if it ate through the chrome or stained it. I'll post pics later when I'm not on my phone but my rims are 19" speedy rim inferno silver. Thanks in advance!

I hate to say it, but that's why on the back of the bottle in tiny little font they say "test in an inconspicuous area first" for things like this...sounds like you may need to send them out and get them refinished

sorry man

you could try flitz metal polish but I don't know how it works on wheels like yours
