about the polishing you dont need any chemicals you just work your way up sand paper steel wool is too abrassive for the final sand thats why all your stuff has alot of like and scratches.

depending on how coarse the metal is, is what i start with. somthing like a valve cover id strip the paint with paint stripper and start at 400grit and work my way up to 2500 grit and always wet sand not dry sand.

Just a tip, if you use mothers polish, it makes the shine so much better.
