You can do a bit of polishing in situ using fine abrasive blocks. If you want a professional job you could try Vehicle & General Plating of Arlesey, Beds. They do polishing as well as plating.
You could also get a polishing buff attachment for a bench grinder. I did that with some ally windscreen surrounds of a Yank car I owned.

If thats the one in the other wedge thread then I had to keep me sunglasses on a Duxford to look at it. Nice.
