    How to remove scratches from hubcaps

    Ok, so I've gone through maybe 20 old hubcabs I had laying around in an attempt to come up with 4 of them without dents.

    I think I have four good ones now but they all have minute scratches in them from years of handling etc. I can't really tell if they are stainless
    or chrome or both.

    Any secrets to get those light scratches out? I have tried mothers mag wheel polish, stainless oven cleaner, what next? Nothing seems to work.

    What works? thanks.
