Scratches on OEM 18" wheels

I've got some semi deep surface scratches on all my wheels (stay away from All About Tires in Toughkenemon, PA) and am wondering if this is something a detailer can buff out. Can the wheels be buffed? I figure yes, but need someone with experience to help out.

Thanks folks!

usually most places can't match the factory titanium looking color, it seems.

www.wheelcollision.com seems to have refurb ones in stock.

I had the same problem when my 18s were repainted. Not a good match.

Ditto, the work done is good, but not a match. Still better than the scratches.
