Solvol Autosol will bring it back up shiny again, no matter how old it
is.

Mer. Best polish I've found for black paint yet.

I use citric acid to remove any iron contamination first. Then 6 micron
diamond paste on a hard cloth followed by 1 micron diamond paste on a
soft selvyt cloth. This will produce a virtual mirror finish. You could
go for a sub-micron diamond, but frankly you'd only see the difference
under a microscope.

Hypothetically, I would nick mine from the materials lab at work. You'd
have to buy yours from a metallurgical consumables supplier if you
wanted a consistent diamond particle size.

You did ask what's the *best* .
