Default Using a dremel to polish center caps

Anyone used a dremel to polish centercaps - I am trying to buff a set of metal caps? If so, what attachment did you use? Alternatively, what grit sandpaper is recommended? Thanks -

I polished mine. I sanded them down by hand using medium grit paper and then 400 and 600 grit emery cloth. Then I used a polishing wheel attached to a dril press. The whole job took less than an hour, and they look great.
