It is coming along nicely.  I got my hands on some of that Flitz polish that so many here seem to like.   Count me in on the Flitz bandwagon!  

The results you see are not perfect.  To me it looks better in pictures than standing in front of it.  Flitz won't do a thing for deep scratches and dents, but it sure does get rid of the grime.   Each section (front/left/right) took about an hour of polishing with the DA attachment for my drill.  I still have a little more to do on the right side but I could no longer feel my fingers so I decided it was time to quit for the night.   Cool
