Polish looks great.

Nice job. Is that using the Dremel abrasive that comes with the polishing kit in a small jar?

It reminds me of that SA black chrome 1911 when the light hit's it. Now I'm thinking about polishing mine. Have you thought of maybe giving it some DuraCoat Clear to help the maintenance of that finish?

Bring on the rust!!!
Seriously, aren't you afraid of rusting? I know the original finish isn't that protective, but it has to be better than nothing.

You might try some 000 steel wool to even things out and give it a nice buffed look. As far as the rust issue goes take a look at this stuff which they say you can now get at Sears.
