Thats pretty much how I do them. Minus the belt sander.

A piece if sandpaper wrapped around a paint stick, works wonders.

I f its horn u may want to refrain from using the buffer on the very edge, do that part by hand. U won't notice any difference if sanded to a high grit.

Always buff off an edge, never into it. BTW
