Default Re: i want to polish metal, who knows how?

Go to home depot or lowes. Look in the tool section or ask the clerk for these supplies.
You can buy an inexpensive kit for this. should come with a buffing wheel(s) and polishing compound(s).
You can use a drill to turn the polishing wheel.
I used this kit to polish my old motorcycles frame.
I also used several fine grit sandpaper sheets to smooth things out at first. Then used the wheel with the compound.
At the end I used some mothers polish to clean it up.
It came out to a mirror shine.

If your IC pipes are already smooth, you could probably skip the sandpaper
Good luck
