I bought a raw aluminium caad x frame that I want to sand and polish up. I understand the process of going higher in grade of wet and dry to achieve a more polished look....
But my question is... How the hell do you achieve this finish... low bikes
It's not that polished in terms of reflection but it is super smooth and consistent but yet dull?
I'm assuming Andrew low has perfected this process and most likely uses power tools and polishing wheels to achieve this, As all the polishing marks looks the same direction. Beats my hand sanding and messy direction.
For what it's worth I'm about to start the 600 grit process and have not touched metal polish yet.
Here may be the best place to seek advice.

Anyone have any insight?
