Roughing:
As other have mentioned in this thread, I usually start with a roughing wheel & compound.
Then I move to a polishing wheel & compound.

Finish/maintaining by hand:
I also like Simichrome, Flitz & Mothers, In my experience Mothers seems to hold the shine longer. ( a must if you collect & restore motors from the brass & polished aluminum era as
Maintenance can be time consuming task.)

Polishing small detailed parts:
On small parts I like to use my Dremel tool as all the roughing & finishing wheels are available for it. Larger machines & wheels can easily take small parts from your hands and throw them to the floor damaging them or having to go hunting for them under the bench.
