From there you use a medium polish (3M's are sub-par) at 1400RPM and finish with a final polish (3M Ultrafina is a good one) at 1200-1400 RPM. Sometimes you can skip the middle step, sometimes you need to make multiple passes. This is just basic knowledge though. Are you using a rotary?

    Yup, using the rotary.

    This is what I use now.
