Thread: How to polish lead?

I made a lead wedge for my latest razor restore and im wondering, how do you polish lead to shine? I want to do this before installing it in the scales. And i'd like to do this without rubbing it too much thinner as right now its just about right.

Comments? Answers? Never dealt with polishing such a soft metal before.
I admit this could be a pretty dumb question. I can just grab a rag and some metal polish, but having never polished something so soft i wanted to be sure this was correct. Pardon my ignorance.
