Obviously you need a better motor...I think Caswell has some inexpensive buffers and so does HF.

Did it look better after just the emery than after the brown (tripoli)? A lot of times I skip the brown and go straight to white.

Also, if you have pores/pits which are bubbles in the metal, they will prevent obtaining a real good finish. Only thing to do in that case is plate with copper so it fills the pores, repolish, and get it chromed.
