Default any product to get rid of light scratches on chrome?

Hello,
Maybe I'm being picky but after wash/clay bar/polish/ and wax, I noticed the chrome areas of my brushguard has light feather scratches when the sun hits it. Is it because I'm using cotton wipes instead of microfibre to wipe? Any products you guys recommend to get rid of (swirl)light scratches? I'm hoping the chrome will be mirror like.

Thanks.

Terry towels are old news. Deffinitly switch to microfiber for exterior and interior surfaces.

As for a good polish, I'd hit it with Menzerna Power Finish and one of our GP Polishing cloths. That will clean up the light swirls and bring back a nice shine and brilliance to the chrome.
