    Metal polishing advice

    Hi all!

    I'm finishing my belt sander, with an attachment for polishing.
    I'm wondering what I have to buy, I need to make a very shiny and good surface on aluminum, brass and steel.

    I found:

    Disc:
    - cotton soft
    - cotton lined
    - cotton\sisal

    Paste:
    - White roughing ( i have already )
    - Blue buffing , 2nd passage
    - Pink polishing alu and brass
    - Green (only for stainless?)
    - Brown scratch removing gold silver

    My question is: which paste should I buy? I think all 4, maybe the green is not useful?
    Second big question, it's necessary one cotton disc for each paste or it's possible to mix the pastes on one disc?
