Yes - to stop leaving greasy finger prints all over that lovely polished chrome!
My CD player came with a similar set of white gloves (with anti-slip grips on the palm side, so as not to drop the heavy item), to prevent leaving finger marks on the brushed satin black finish of the player.
Anyway the white gloves will go nicely with your top hat and tails when you are out on the town.

Hi Al, is it actually chrome or has the chrome been coated with a protective clear varnish?
If it is chrome then I would go for a very good chrome cleaner that was not highly abrasive, I used to use this on a Morgan sports car, it is very easy to use and leaves a protective coating, put if on thinly and polish of with a clean microfibre cloth. https://www.meguiars.co.uk/shop/nxt-metal-polysh I would personally avoid a spray as it will go everywhere and could be problematic around the other gear.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

I think I am nearing audio nirvana, but don’t tell anyone.
Just use Coca Cola. The Italians use to use it to clean all the chrome trim of their sports cars.
