You should do some research on what it really takes to do a quality polish job. You can count on some countless hours of work. I know of people who have burnt out more than one drill in the process of polishing larger jobs such as a frame. Google it and read up, I cannot say it enough..... it is ALOT of work.

Water...

You can have a polishing party. My friend had 4-5 guys rotate through. One guy with spray, the other with a sander. When they got tired, others would rotate in. Buy lots of beer and pizza to keep them there. I was in Guam when we did this. Not much to do anyways and the free food and beer kept us in place.

or do yourself so that you can take pride in ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL that work you did...hahahaaaaa
