    First you clean the legs, then use rust remover or sand paper to sand the rust off. Seal the places. Depending on how big they are and how much they show. you can use clear nail polish or for larger places clear polyurathane. Use two or three light coats of the urathane. Do it soon after the sanding because it will rust again very quickly just from moisture in the air.

    Find some Navel jelly and it will remove minor rust off of chrome fairly easy! There are also some orange cleaners multipurpose cleaner that will remove rust too! Just usually not found in a retail store! Always got my orange cleaner from a door to door salesman! But may find it online too! If it’s heavy rust I get some fine grit steel wool and soak steel wool in some vegetabl or olive oil to help prevent scratch to your good chrome and use the steel wool to sand off the rust!

    I agree, about the sanding.

    But I prefer metallic Rust-oleum, (take it outside to use). Get it from the hardware store, use it like a spray paint, people buy it for chips in metal bumpers, etc.

    Try rubbing your chrome chair legs with aluminum foil. I have heard it works but haven't needed to try it.
