carbide burrs to remove and smooth the casting flash then sandling wheel in the drill to see how it would come up. The final bit will of course be a nice buff up on a polishing wheel.

I'm just using wire brushes in a power drill to do my megane one, did about half of it thoroughly in an hour. Looks alright.
