I'm thinking of buffing out the satin finish that's on the sides/back of my MTO. I've trawled through several threads regarding this topic and have decided to use Meguiar's Rubbing and Polishing compounds for the job, as several cafe members have done so with nice results. My question for those who have done this before: How much time does one spend applying the rubbing compound vs. the polishing compound? One thread mentioned the whole job taking about 4 hours (though theirs was an entirely satin MT vs mine which is a gloss top), but they didn't specify how much time was spent using the rubbing compound before moving on to the polishing one. Will it just be obvious when to move to the next stage? Does the rubbing compound bring up a shinier finish itself?
