Anyone know of a thread to link to?

Here's a few questions of my own.

Is power buffing, either with a regular large or Dremel type wheel appropriate? Contingent on avoiding engraving. If so, what compound is suitable? Red Rouge is recommended for soft metals, not steel. Green compound is recommended for steel. Blue compound is finer than Green, and is recommended for materials like plastic, would it work as a final buff on steel?

If power buffing is not recommended, what materials and grits are appropriate for the hand polishing process?

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.
