First Polish step was with Optimum Polish II on my makita rotary with a LC hybrotech orange pad...i probably should have tried a compound, but i was nervous not knowing how the paint would react...im guessing the paint is a baked enamel on the lid, but i have no idea.

i even used the Power Clean on the inside to get the grime...worked pretty good!

Nice job. I'm thinking about doing the same thing. Although my grill is worse off than your was.
