POLISHING M730 XT CRANKS

Various grades of wet n dry , followed by autosol or another metal polish and polishing wax.. and lots of elbow grease.. :)
 
Other option is a 'polishing mops' kit from ebay and an electric drill. Typically comes with 3 different 'mops', a couple of bars of polish and a taper for mounting the mops to the drill.
 
It depends if you want to get any deep scrathes out too. Wirewool and autosol and ruined rubber gloves and numb fingers for 2 days.
 
I`m looking into doing this now too. Isn`t it necessary first to take the anodising off with oven cleaner or lye before sanding and polishing?

I start with 400 grit wet and dry using water[spit] as a lube.Then on to 800,then 1000,1200 + so on.
Then on to OOOO grade wire wool
Finally autosol metal polish on a soft cloth

Try to work in the one direction only.
