If you do buff it, you want a slow speed buffer, by hand if you can't get one, and a mild polishing compound.

Once your done then use wax to protect the paint and mirror finish.

Full detailed article.

Go with some car wax and a little elbow grease.

Be careful trying to buff it. Not knowing what the surface is you could scratch it up pretty bad.
