A technique for polishing metal objects such as, for example, those made of aluminum, stainless steel, and brass is described. The technique employs a metal-polishing apparatus which includes a double-jointed arm assembly and a table assembly. The arm assembly includes a brush assembly, a handle, and an actuating device. The double-jointed nature of the arm assembly advantageously allows an operator to effectively polish a detailed and ornate metal object. The table assembly has a frame, a rotatable table-top assembly, and a mechanism for securing the object. The metal object to be polished is placed on the table-top assembly and allowed to rotate with respect to the frame. The technique also relates to the preparation, polishing, and post-polishing methods employed with the metal-polishing apparatus. The present technique enables aluminum, brass, and stainless steel objects to be effectively polished, and therefore refurbished, by removing a significant amount of damage (i.e., scratches) from the metal object.
