If you want to use the rotary tool you already have, then you can mimic the bench polisher by using compouds, with miniature mops of the kind you are used to.
On the other hand a set of three or four grades of radial wheels, ending with light green will be much cleaner to use in a home work space.
For pieces that are entirely flat, you can't do better than a selecion of Micro-Mesh sheets ending with grit 8000, flat on the bench with your work rubbed on it. These not only give a brilliant finish, but preserve the flatness.
If you have a piece that is mainly textured, then a wet and soapy brass brush is best. Dennis
