I do paint and bodywork. I've buffed mine and they looked brand new, but you have to be careful because a buffer spins at a high rpm and you could chance melting the plastic, but as long as you keep a squirt bottle and spray a little water on the wax or compund before you buff you will be fine.

plastic polish w/ a powerball mini works well on light oxidation.

id use 3000 since your not putting any base coat down. ive done this to a few tails, but we have 3000 trizact (velcro) paper for buffing on a da and i use that on tails as long as tehy dont have any weird grooves.then just clean and clear like normal.
