Polishing Fuchs

Hey, I bought these Fuchs at Hershey (7X16) and I was wondering what the best way to bring the lips up to par would be. They are in fairly good shape, the only real flaw being a scratch on the second one.
(Original saga is here: Fuch'd at Hershe? )

My question is -- is there anything I should (or must) do to protect the aluminum on that scratch? Is it exposed through the anodizing? Is there anything wrong with that?

Any suggestions on a polishing compound would be good as well. I was planning on starting with 3M inperial glaze, and working in some P21S multi-surface polish as it went.

Edit: I should add that all I want to do is clean up the lips and protect them -- I don't plan on high gloss or taking of the anodizing. Just back to stock.

Thanks.

Jared
