P182se is sliiiiick. I also saw a how-to on Metku.net about polishing a case to a mirror finish. Turned out super nice!

polish and compound works wounders, i wouldn't want to do it on a big case though. it would take a long time. here is a processor i lapped and then polished it took 10-20 minutes to just polish and its a tiny square.

A great source for polishing materials can be at truck stops. Truckers have polished rims, bumpers, etc. That's where I find my best stuff.

there is a special type of polish for plexiglass. as well as a scratch remover. check your local plastics shop to see what they have.

Almost a mirror finish. Note that I'm not done with clear coats yet. Once I'm done with clear, I'll polish. before applying the clear, I put down 3 coats of black, and then wet sanded with 400 then 600.
