Repairing chip in chrome on primary cover

I have a custom bike with a lot of chrome. On my primary cover, there is a chip in the chrome. The chip is not very deep. Is there a way to buff if out? Can anything be done?

Nope, sorry.

If a scratch or nick has any depth whatsoever, chrome will be unrepairable, if you want it to be invisible.
