Use the wet and dry paper as I explained up the discussion a bit further.
If you need to buy some. Make sure you get a combo pack of sandpaper.
It should have Fine (1200grain) Medium (800grain) and Coarse (600grain) sheets of paper in a pack.
Or just get the medium and fine paper in sheets.
When you rub with the paper, you wet it and it goes a bit pasty, sort of a course polish.
You start with the coarse paper to make the scratches go away and then work down to the fine paper to give a shiny surface. Then polish them off with a fine Metal polish like Purple or Autosol.
It should only take you an hour or so at most if you leave the brackets on the bike.
OH! I see, you have already whipped em off while I was typing my reply.
