Another suggestion is to try skipping the tripoli (brown). Sometimes it's better to go from black to white.
One reason you'll get differing info and opinions on here is that each piece of metal and each slightly different alloy takes different methods to get good results. Past experience helps choose a method, but it's still a lot of trial and error.
