Have you tried the polishing compound they sell at the swap meets? You know, the one they show you how it polishes the Beer Keg. Can't remember the name right now but it works real well.

Chemlab,
Eastwood has a nice kit you can purchase to polish you manifold. It has the sanding and polishing supplies. I believe they even have a video. The big thing is the smoother you get it the nicer it will look. there really is no rocket, or chemical, sicience involved.
Pun intended.

Take it and have it blasted and put in a polishing tumbler.
