HELP! How do I remove these scratches?
I accidentally used the rough side of a sponge to clean this mirror polished stainless steel tray without knowing that it would leave scratches like this. I dunno how to remove it now... I tried using baking soda paste and it did seem to lighten the scratches a bit... please let me know if there's a way to restore it to its original state.
For context, it's the drip tray of my espresso machine.
EDIT: I couldn't find replacement parts being sold online. I know the drip tray being like that doesn't affect its purpose in any way, but the look just irks me a lot. It's a personal preference to want it to look the way it did before the scratches and I'm about to try the suggestions mentioned below. Thanks for the ideas
