Default FIRST STEP

OK The trouble I am having is with the first step in polishing a sportbike frame. The top portion has an anodized coating and the bottom portion has a rough gritty finish. It is taking me forever to get to the point where I can use 400 grit. Once I am at the 400 grit phase its smooth sailing. Some people suggest those sanding cyliders that you put in a drill. Does anyone out there have any suggestions? Also, I plan to use that clear coating stuff when finished. How long does that last and does it affect the look of the mirror finish at all?
