2. Polishing (metalworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polishing_(metalworking)

   A no. 8 ("mirror") finish requires polishing and buffing compounds, and polishing wheels attached to high speed polishing machines or electric drills. Lubricants like wax and kerosene [ 4 ] may be used as lubricating and cooling media during these operations, although some polishing materials are specifically designed to be used "dry."

3. Electropolishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electropolishing

   While nearly any metal may be electropolished, the most-commonly polished metals are 300- and 400-series stainless steel, aluminum, copper, titanium, and nickel- and copper-alloys. Ultra-high vacuum (UHV) components are typically electropolished in order to have a smoother surface for improved vacuum pressures, out-gassing rates, and pumping speed.

4. Tumble finishing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumble_finishing

   A well-chosen speed for stone polishing causes the rocks within the barrel to slide past each other, with the abrasive grit between them. The result of this depends on the coarseness of the abrasive, and the duration of the tumble. Typically, a full tumble polish from rough rock to polish takes 3–5 weeks, and is done in a minimum of 3 steps.

5. Turned, ground, and polished - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turned,_Ground,_and_Polished

   Turned, ground, and polished (TGP) is a classification of finishing processes often used for metal shafting. Turning (on a lathe) creates straight round bars without the strain induced by cold drawing, while grinding and polishing improves the surface finish and roundness for high dimensional accuracy. [1]

6. Struers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Struers

   Struers provide cutting, mounting, grinding, polishing, microevaluation, hardness testing equipment [6] and consumables [4] for the analysis of metal samples. Government departments, [ 7 ] universities, [ 8 ] NASA [ 9 ] and the International Metallographic Society use Struers equipment in the analysis metal or material samples.

7. Brasso - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brasso

   Brasso has also been used to polish out scratches in plastics: It has been used to polish CDs, DVDs, screens, and pools to repair scratches. It is a mild solvent and an extremely fine abrasive, so when applied to the reflective surface of the disc and rubbed radially (in straight lines between the edge and centre), it can smooth scratches and reduce their effect.
