Silvero (I think its called) worked well for me, also T-Cut works ok also. Autosol is a bit too hard, but maybe worth a try but be gentle and try a small area. All depends if they are surface or really deep mate... ;)

Deep scratches are impossible mate.

The best chrome polish for polishing  nice chrome is Autosol liquid. Unbelievable but only if the chrome has gone through the normal autosol abrasive process.

they're just surface scratches, autosol doesn't seem to be doing that much to it though.
