I suggest a mass finishing machine system using either a wet burnishing process or it can be done in a dry process. If you have parts with small ID holes, I suggest the wet process, because dry organic materials will get stuck in ID's. Steel media shapes will work faster because of its weight, but porcelain is a little cheaper but will take longer. You also need a good lubricating compound to work will media.
