but can you polish just one end of a part? Or will that bit between polish and no polish have horrible friction and end up breaking the part?I really don't want shiny stuff showing outside of my pistol.

yea you can just polish the metal to metal contact points and leave the rest unpolished, i usually polish the entire part but i put a lot more TLC into the important areas while leaving the rest of it with just a light polish

Does anyone know where I can find some heavy metal polish (like the kind from brilex that rogerxd45 speaks of?). It seems everywhere is out of stock.

if you could even send me a little bit I would appreciate it.
