Sure thing ! No secrets here . I picked up an 8" Polishing machine at Northern and purchased the buffing wheels and compound from Eastwood . It's not a bad job to do. Of course that would also depend on the condition of the trim
Being polished ! Also, attach the piece of trim being polished to a piece of wood . You'll be better able to control it and will keep the wheels from pulling it out of your hands or grabbing it which usually ends up bending the trim . I did also order a cutting wheel for stainless ( looks pretty aggressive ) but haven't needed to use it yet . I can't recall the material it's made of at the moment . Do a search on Eastwoods site and you'll see everything I'm referring to . I'll be polishing up my rear window trim before to long and will post pics when it done . Good luck with yours and holler back with any other questions about it .

The aggresive cutting wheel i was referring to in the above post, is a Sisal buff wheel.
