Polishing scratches from chrome??

I could use some advice. I was washing my bike and there was a mark on the exhaust. Probably a mark from a shoe (or maybe a saddlebag) touching it when it was hot. I had two scrubbers I was using...one was plastic like which I was using for scrubbing bugs, etc and the other was a kitchen type scrubber. Long story short I used the wrong one and scratched the exhaust. Now I am looking for any advice on polishing it back up. They are fine scratches...like the chrome looks kinda dull in the spot I was scrubbing. Any products/method I could use to get the shine back?

^^ Just be sure not to get the can wet... it will rust :D
I'm pretty sure the never dull stuff has the fine steel wool as well, just soaked in a solution.

I think oven cleaner works well to remove "baked on grime" lol. Just be sure to protect any painted surfaces from over spray. There are a few threads about it on the boards.
