it all depends on how deep the scratches are. if youuse some metal polish, it should at least take out some of the scratches.

I would recommend that you polish it (chrome polish should be easily available), and then touch up any remaining deep scratches with silver paint and a fine brush. Spray paint is unlikely to look good.


Of course, if you have the money, a rechrome would be best.
