The only thing I use is Fab-U-Luster jewelry polish on a clean buff. Don't use the wheel on metal.

yes I to use a white rouge the most, but the pink gives the ground parts a nice hew to it if you like that..try it on a scrap piece first..do not over heat it.

I start out with the White and go to the no scratch pink it will look great. Have a great day in the world of knives. And God bless

Yup. Also as mentioned, don't use a buff that has been used on metal. It will gray up any handle material.
