T-Cut would get those scratches out, just ignore the circular motion advice and follow the grain of brushing. To get it looking right though you are going to have to do the whole surface of the hob imo, whatever method you use.

What Josey said, had a summer job using scotch pads (the nylon stuff) to give the 'brushed' affect on satin finish SS railings - glad it was only a week's work as hard grafting.
You could try some other method, following the grain, as it may be enough to disguise the marks.

I work with stainless steel every day at work, polishing and welding.

This is what we use at work


I've got many a scratch out with scotch brite, much worse than that. Make sure that you move in the same direction as the grain on the stainless and you'll be fine, thats the key thing.

Don't stress though, it's not that bad!

This stuff does wonders:

I have used it for numerous different things and it's great [thumbup]

edit: but then again you would have to polish the whole thing as it will get very shiny...

you need a loyblox, red one will do.
its a little rubber block with grains in it for exactly this kinda thing and will only need to do the area effected as it blends really well.
god damn i cant find em though. i know ive got 3 in my toolbox at work though if that helps
scotchbrite pads will show up meaning the whole area will have to be done.

The stainless steel looks brushed... polishing it will increase the amount of damage.

It seems everyone is thinking polishing => circular motion
which if youŽd do so would result in damaging the surface even more.

Sounds like professional advice. To ignore this man would be unwise.
