I had about 5 polishing agents, some 20 years old sitting around the house. Only one that worked to get it started was Revere Copper cleaner. I used a sponge on that and got it most of the way. I then used my 3 inch Griots random orbital with a product called Flitz Polish. The Flitz is awesome and the high speed is what made it shine. Like I said the interior lighting gives it a dull look in the pic.
I had done the tips before but never was happy. I got advice how to do them right but never bought any good product to do it until recently. The trick with the tips is high speed and the Flitz...I figured I had messed them up with my earlier attempts and they would never look really nice again...but they really come back to a wonderful finish. I'm guessing there are plenty of other products like Flitz out there.
Spinnaker - With a decent polishing agent you should be able to make them look pretty good without the buffer.
