I have a Harbor Freight 4 inch nylon polishing wheel either item number 91372 or 60325 that I use a lot in a drill press. The drill press is a 16 speed and needs to be set to a fairly high speed. I would recommend you get one or essentially the same from MSC or another vendor.

I think it will do what you want or at least be a great start before using your smaller polishing wheel.

Even if it does not solve this problem , you will find it useful and it is not expensive.
