Two questions about aluminium sheet approx 1mm thick.

Can I cut it using my table saw with a TCT blade and/or will doing so blunt
the blade rapidly?


No, it won't blunt the blade. You will have to be very careful of
feed rate and support, though, or you'll get wobbly edges, to say
the least.


Can I get a polishing mop to fit a 115mm angle grinder, so I can mirror
finish it?


I doubt that'll mirror finish it - maybe make lots of polishing
marks in it. Use flour grade wet'n dry (if need be) with plenty
of wayer with a drop of hairy lipsquid, then brasso on a clean
cotton cloth by hand.
