Nice! What did you use to hand polish the ac9?
I was thinking about buying some MOTHERS 05101 Mag & Aluminum Polish from amazon.
Thanks. I'm afraid polishing SS from a brushed finish to mirror is not so simple, and a fair amount of work. I sanded wet with 600, 1000, 2000 grit paper progressively, then polished with Sharkhide metal polish. All by hand - no sanding / buffing wheels. It actually took multiple passes of the whole sequence.
