well, it was 20 years ago, so I can't be certain of the details.
I think it was basically what has been recommended... start out with some fine sandpaper... maybe 1000 or 2000 grit and see how it goes. Always wet sand. After getting to the finest sandpaper grit (2000? 4000?), I then used 0000 steel wool, and then finally Simichrome polish.
