this site should help give you the lowdown
youll need 200 to 600 grit sandpaper ,buffing wheels, ruege,a corded drill (though a bench grinder is much better once set up properly) ,and alot of time and paitience but you can do it at home and you can find everything you need at sears or home depot just be ready to get really dirty (wear goggles)
