Part of what makes it tough is there are not a lot of flat surfaces. Also you can’t get too aggressive or you will dent the car (the body is 1.5mm or about 0.060” thick soft aluminum). It’s just a hell of a lot of square inches to polish or brush. And the brushed cars do have all the marks going front to back.

I don’t think you would have to fill anything if you paint it, other than what the normal body filler would cover.
