You need hours and hours of time and some autosol. You'll also need summit to take the old paint off, nitro morse or similar. You could do it with it on but alot easier to take it off. Its not hard. Some places will machine polish it though for not too much.

Best results are had from big machine polishers, but with an electric sander and dremmel tool you could do it yourself.
