How do I get these scratches out of my alloy wheels?

I made a major mistake. While cleaning my aluminum rims after changing to winter tires, I must have used a dirty rim brush. Since it wasn't obvious when they were wet, unfortunately all four rims are scratched. They're not really deep scratches, more like matte scratches. See pictures.

Who can tell me if and how I can repair this damage?

Shiny…. thick hard wax over it and hope it’s halfway covered.

Correctly eliminate is expensive.

Even with polishing machine, it won’t work. Only on a rotary bench can the structure be restored by turning off a thin layer.

Google for rim doctor. I’m sure you’ll find one near you.

You don’t get rid of it any more.

There’s only a very expensive repair going on. It’s not going to be beaten. But what’s up? Smaller rockets or bring scratches back. I just want to leave. After 3-4 years of use they look the same.
