I'm looking at the Stainless Steel Metal Polishing Kit and various Stainless Steel Polishing Compounds for possible use for cleaning up, maybe SLIGHT shining/brightening up a Stainless Steel Slides with a Matte finish on a handguns.
I don't need a complete restore, maybe just some light cleaning up or a good buffing with a buffing compound and buffing wheel.

I've heard some opinions that this should work and some that it won't like this response:
"Looks like the matte finish is a standard SS that has been glass bead blast finished. I don't know how deep the matte finish is but it would have to be sanded down past the glass bead finish and brushed or polished to re-surface it. A good metal finisher could do it but It looks fine to me the way it is".

Any input or suggestions?

Thanks!
