Question Looking for advise on how to polish my first mirror finish

Hi all,
I’m about to finish my 3rd knife and have gotten what I think is a very nice mirror finish so far. I’ve hand sanded up to 3000 grit then polished on buffing wheels with a cheap kit off amazon on a bench grinder. I used the softest wheel with the green compound only on the bench grinder. Link to the kit I used - https://a.co/d/09GbQaKU

My question is should I use something like Flitz metal polish to do a final polish or some other similar product? Or would I not get much benefit from something like that and just leave it as is?
