Good luck. Stainless is very hard. I tried polishing some exhaust pipes once. Not worth my time. Are you thinking of doing this for your own stuff?

I polished some old stained switchable mufflers up in a hurry with a wheel on a cordless drill and some 3M Finesse-It Rubbing/Cut compound. I was impressed with how well it worked. Any other auto store metal polish wont do hardly anything to SS.

Buffing wheel I bought at Eastwood, polishing rouge, cheap chineese 8" bench grinder I bought used at Swap o Rama for 10$ 15 years ago
finished off with a foam pad on my Milwaukee angle grinder. I polished the stainless throttle and shifters for my Magnum. I've done a lot of aluminum as well, starting with 800 grit and working my way to 3000 I bead blasted them first. Finished off with 3M Finesse it, and sealed with Zoopseal

The white stuff and a high speed wheel works like butter.
