A good question....this really depends on the result you are looking for, just clean and looks good from 10' or on towards the removing of most all scratches then polishing to a clear mirror shine.....

A quick search on polishing SS on u tube will give you an idea of what is involved.....good luck...I can say the result can be quite satisfying.......
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.

If there is embedded iron/rust, before waxing, use a mild acid to remove the iron. The stainless won't rust, but embedded iron will.
Thanks
