Frame polishing

I want to polish the frame of my NC30 as it has black marks (look like shallow stone scuffs) all over it.
What would be the best and cheapest product to either hand or machine polish it with?
Also, after polishing, should i just seal the surface with laquer or can anyone suggest another method?

I polished my frame.
It took ages as there is a hard protective laquer all over it.
I used a Sander and dremel, then sandpaper, mops, and just about everything inbetween!
The bike was totally stripped, so i could get to all parts. The swing arm was also polished.
Great overall finished product though, very late 80's/early 90's style!

But Never Again!!

Thanks I forgot to add that I haven't sealed it after polishing. For me this is ideal as there areas I want to polish a bit more/improve upon.
A few more pics

And this one shows where I have started sanding off the protective coating put on by Honda.
