The Mothers Power Ball and polish worked to reduce the appearance of scratches on my ZQ8's. I'm not sure how well it'll work on chrome though.

With chrome, you'll want to use a very fine chrome polish such as #11132 from Griots. Use 100% Cotton or Microfiber towel to polish.

I doubt it if you'll be able to polish out the scratches though. Chrome isn't very forgiving in that area.
