Rubbing compound, then a nonabrasive rubbing coupound. Yaght bright makes something called buff magic. It won some inventors award for being the first ture non abrasive rubbing compound or something. Its expensive as shit tho, 22 bucks for half a quart, but works better than flitz and its cheaper than flitz.

a good product that will shine ANY metal to a polished shine and remove scratches is a paste called FLITZ, the only place iv been able to find it was boaters world, also make sure you get the extra strength stuff otherwise you will be using more than you need.

almost forgot, when using flitz the best way i have found to use it was to take a vary damp rag, use this to rug the paste in, then use clean paper towls to remove the past befor it dries. this stuff is awsome, i was just playing around one day and i took an old like 1983 oenny and after i cleaned it with the paste it looked like a mint penny printed in 2005. get-r-dunnn
