Formax is what most of us use
Here is a thread I did awhile ago on buffers and polishing
http://straightrazorpalace.com/works...lustrated.html
There are more of them too
Better???? hmmmmm how about this if I was only restoring razors for myself I doubt I would have ever moved to using Tumblers and/or Buffers
it takes "Days" to get a good finish by hand it takes "Hours" to use power.. (It is also way more dangerous to the razor and you when you start playing with fast spinning wheels)
But I doubt most people could see a difference in the finished steel...
I use a combination of Wet and Dry paper and greaseless compound.
