I've seen mirror-smooth aluminum, but I have no idea how they
achieved it - maybe lapping?
I've gotten near-mirror finishes by sanding with
progressively finer grits of sandpaper, ending
with 800 or so and then buffing with a canvas
wheel and polishing rouge. Ryobi sells the wheels
and rouge at Home Despot.
Thanks!
