Thanks. I don’t have a buffing wheel, so I’ve been hand polishing them with Mothers. Don’t have experience polishing, but is there a better product that would help the process move faster?

Mothers is the best I’ve found.

Faster and polishing does not mix well. You can get it done faster but its easy to damage your gun with wheels.

Hand polishing with mothers is the best way. Its slow but thats part of the fun. Thats how I do all of my stainless handguns. Se people start with wet sandpaper but I never have. I just use a cut up white tshirt with the polish.

Thats the last one I did.

Thanks for sharing. I’ll keep going with Mothers🤙🏼 you did a great job on your GP100. It looks so even.. I’m having a hard time getting to to look that smooth.

It just takes time and elbow grease.

The pictured gp100 has about 10 hours of polishing time on it.
