I’ve been flame polishing acrylic in the sign business for 37 yrs. I sanded down to about 600 grit. We used straight acetylene with one or two passes along the edges to produce a transparent glass finish. Sometimes with a rag and Methylene Chloride, (which is the main ingredient for gluing acrylic), you can shine up edges with that.

Hi! I have no one to ask to. I’m using an acrylic emulsion as a sealant to my cement piece. Can I use a wool buffer to polish it? I hated the brush strokes the sealant shows.

Didn't show well the final finish. Not enough info about the polishing rouges.

If its to large to pick up to a polishing wheel, then just use an electric hand buffer. or do it the old fashioned way, by hand!

Just a note, your mic was WAY too close to your neck. You kept pressing into it and distorting the audio when you leaned your head down.
