I decided to try this and it works. I use a glass bead that would be about the same as 120 grit. Using 30 psi air presure, above that it tends to warp the thin blades. The Claus took about a hour of work on the buffer. The Crown was so rusted it looked like swiss cheese after the rust was gone. The finish is almost like a shinny satin finish aftr uffing. After buffing it took very little to get an edge on the blade. After I make the the scales I will finish honing it.
