like you said, you need to raw and polish them.
1. raw them-http://www.scooterresource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=75677
2. polish them, since i have never actually polished a part before, this is just coming from my common sense, i presume you will have to buff them then use polish. Ask someone who is good at polishing like lamay, he Polished his tilts.
I can't imagine it being that hard, just polish them for ages, and repeat whenever they get murky or less shiny i guess.

Raw them with whatever you use to raw anodized finishes
Basic method:
Then you wet sand with A really reAlly fine sand paper... Really fine (I'd have to check the grit I used,I don't remember what it was) then you follOw the instructions on any car/metal polish...
Super shiny method:
Ask Lamay!
Super extreme ultra shine:
Get your forks chrome plated!

no, you don't wet sand, if you do that you will loose the smoothness of the fork and it wont have a mirror like polish.
you raw the part.
then you get some metal polish from the store.
follow the instructions.
repeat the instructions until satisfied with the result.
Its a pain in the ass to polish by hand, if i were you i would buy a dremel kit and they come with a polishing kit that works really well.

Yes you do wet sand, its not required, but when you wet sand you have to be thorough. Start with 240 grit and work your way to 2000 grit too smooth everything out. Then you clean the part and polish.
