Need buffing of a 23" dia. aluminum blanks 0.040 thk.

We need to buff to a mirror finish a 23-1/2" dia. 3003 alloy aluminum blank 0.040 thick. After sampling the production run would be 1,000 / 2,000 pieces.
I can supply a jig to hold the blank.
We used to use a Clair Buffing machine for this years ago.

Thanks
Gary B
