I have some chrome trim outside as well as inside on my ride that is scratched up. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what product I can use to get rid of them, or at least make them less noticeable?:hairpull

What car is it on? Chances are it`s more likely plastichrome unless it`s a truck bumper or an older car. If chrome polish doesn`t take car of it you may need to go with a multi step metal polish on buffing wheels.

If that is plastic that is chrome (actually vacuum metalizing) and you use metal polish and buffing wheels you`ll wear that thin coating off in no time.

Even "real" chrome is very thin and hard. The best you`ll be able to do is use a good chrome cleaner and then perhaps a good glaze and/or wax.
There have been a lot of threads about this if you do a search on chrome.
