start with a rougher sand paper on a orbital sander work your way to super fine, not sure of the grits off of the top of my head, then use something like never dull when your done sanding. im sure there are better ways but that is the only one right now that is relativly easy

Best?
Industrial polisher, followed by a wheel with polishing compound on it, and finish with a nice anodize.
