Buffing chrome amps - best way?

I have a couple chrome amps that have scratches on them, but are otherwise perfect. How do you all clean-up the shallow scratches? What about the deeper ones? Solutions for each challenge out there?

If it was just a polished finish on a metal you could get rid of deep scratches. But since it's chrome plated you can't do anything about deep ones. The lighter scratch you couls try to buff out. Get a fine buffing compound and try to hand polish it out. If it doesn't work try a Dremel or a drill with polishing wheel and the same compound. Good luck

Not too much you can really do with chorme. Best bet would be a good chrome polish and a soft cloth. I think a dremel will just make things worse for you. If you decide to try it though, I would do it first on the underside of the amp to see what you might be getting into.
