Hi Snake, I used Scotch bright pads by Three-M with their rubbing compound, the burgandy{dark red -medium} first pass, and the grey{fine} on the final pass...all by hand, also used 500 grit wet/dry as it was quite oxyied up when I began. You can see my results on page 3 of my Imperial thread linked below in my signature...all smiles from me from the results....best to you on your shine!
