Look up ~Joshua on here. He is the polishing expert. He can give you tips, etc on how to do it. Below is an example of his unbelieveable work he did for me.

He does amazing work, and after trying to take on polishing projects myself the price he asks for his work is more than reasonable!

Send him a PM he will give you some good info on how to do it. I just talked to him last week and yes he does have a new job with long hours and he has cut down signifigantly on his polishing since his new job but he is a good guy and more than willing to talk to you about polishing steps and materials.
