Yup indeed it can.
Wish this thread had happened yesterday!!!

Went a bit mad with the steel wool. Better than it was I suppose but you can see marks from the steel wool now if you're closer to the exhaust than any normal person would be usually.

you don't need brass wool, just some elbow grease and autosol.

Use finer grade steel wool. 0000 is good for removing rust spots without damaging the chrome.
