What you're missing is a mess :)

I polished aluminum parts and it was messy, very, very messy. On cast parts
you'll need to grind/sand them smooth and then use large buffing wheels on
your bench grinder using stainless compound and then rouge if you so desire
but IMHO a waste as the stainless makes the aluminum shine well and it cuts
fast.

Messy, very messy.

If I had to do it again I'd send them out to be done and save yourself a
mess and a lot of time and equipment that you'll need to do it correctly.
