I have a $39 Ryobi bench grinder that I converted to a buffing machine, and
it works fine for shining up golf clubs. I recently took an old nasty Otey
Crisman aluminum and brass putter and made it Gleam like new. One tip: Have a
separate wheel set for each color of buffing compound. Use white first, then
red or blue on chrome.
You are stuck with the scratches unless you want to mess with brush plating
or some equally time-consuming and expensive process.

I refinish clubs for my friends as a hobby. I am interested in
learning how to refinish chrome iron heads (like blades). I am refinishing a
set of Mizunos MP 33 now and I have a challenge. I am trying to remove some
scratches, the kind a little deeper than the brushes from grass or mats. They
still don't pass through the chrome and are not gauges either. The are brush
marks but more stubborn and deeper; you can barely feel them if you pass your
your finger nail on top of them. I tried chrome scratch removers like the ones
used on autos, and it removed the light scratches but left the the less light
ones.
I think I need some kind of buffer before I used the scratch removers and
polishers, but I have no idea which buffer is hard enough to remove the
scratches but mild enough so that it does not remove the chrome. But again I
don't really know if I am in the right track. Do you happen to know where I can
find information on what procedure to follow and the exact material I need to
remove all scratches from the chrome club heads ? Also I don't own a bench
grinder, but I have a handheld one and I also own a Dremel.
I really appreciate any help you can give me. Have a great day.
