Angry scratch chrome wheels help

I just installed a set of 20x9.5 chrome wheels less that a week ago and already have some light curb scratches on one wheel. Is thare any product on the market to take out light scratches out of chrome?

Light surface scratches can be buffed with chrome polish, but if the wheel met the curb, polish won't work. Chrome is a thin plating, and once you scratch it off, it's gone.

If it's deep; I don't think you can fix it.
Try Mother's MAG and Aluminum Polish anyway, and use a microfibre cloth.
