Anyone make spray-on chrome cleaner/polish?
I'm lazy and don't have time to wax on/wax off, but ant my bike to have a nice sheen to the chrome.
Does this product exist?

I haven't seen any but I don't think it's a good idea.
You don't want overspray on the other parts. Pouring a bit on a rag then applying to most of one side it's dry where you started.
I don't think a spray would save any time.

Captain Richard's Best. Formerly known as the BOM - best overall method. You will have your ENTIRE bike detailed and looking show-ready in 15 minutes. It's all I use on my bike...I never run the hose on it.

I use Dri Wash and Guard..works on everything but the rubber. Waterless and not much effort needed to get a good shine and it will not mess up your clear coat. It is all I use on my Ultra

My favorite is Plexus, made for plastic but works on paint and chrome.
Also S100 Corrosion Protectant works fine too.
For both just spray on and buff off using a microfiber cloth.

Already covered by the Windex advice but any "foam" window cleaner is also a chrome cleaner.

I have plenty of the foam style cleaner from work, I never put two and two together, cause you always have to buff that stuff off like a polish afterwards!

Lucas Slick mist
I use it on chrome, paint glass plastic. I use it like a quick detailer. But lucas says "OR, spray it on between rinsing and drying for the easiest polish job ever." Wet or dry, spray it on and wipe it off. I have tried S100, Honda, and Mcguires quick detailers and this is the best I have found. Lucas also has a full line of motorcycle oils(synthetic and conventional), stabilizers and fuel treatments. All made and packaged in the U.S.A. and that means alot to me.
