Lots of sandpaper. Depending on how deep the casting marks are will dictate what grit to start with. I usually start with 100 if the casting marks are huge, 200 if they aren't too bad, then keep stepping down the grit i.e. 200 to 400 to 600 to (wetsanding from now on) 800 to 1000 to 2000. The, hit it with some polishing compound, then you can clear coat it if you want. Really not hard, just time consuming if you're really anal and are going for a true mirror finish vs brushed/satin finish.

These will help out

You could do it by hand just takes longer. If you have a dremel ill speed the process up.

Yeah, any sort of power tool will speed up the process, but it's required. And yeah, get a hold of Farns if you don't want to do it yourself. Just send the entire blower to him and he'll disassemble, polish, and reassemble it.
