Is the metal stainless steel? If so, make a paste of baking soda and water, spread it on the metal, then rub with a small piece of aluminum foil. Kinda messy, but will also shine chrome bumpers and furniture. For the scissors you may need a spritz of WD40 to free up the hinge joint.

Years ago, we used a product called Noxon. It worked great. Not even sure if it's still available. Yup, just found it on google search. Might be at your local retailer.
