wet sand then finish with simichrome or billet polish

it appears these have a brushed finish? If so, start with wet/dry sandpaper maybe 500 grit to sand away the brushed finish. Then you can move to 1000, 2000 and 5000. Plan on sanding in parallel directions as you move from one grade to the next. This approach will make it easier to see if you've removed the sanding 'scratches' from the last grit. When it all looks good, finish will Mother's billet or simichrome. Since these are small it shouldn't take to long.

Alternatively, you can try the dremel and metal polish but stainless is quite hard so it may be challenging to get to a mirror finish without wet sanding.

This Ti Seven began with a brushed finish...now its mirror polished! Just go easy on any welds.
