Powerball - the small one is for metal - actually, they are around $25, therefore - they had better clean up! I was so surprised when I first cleaned my powerball - soap and water - comes out looking perfectly clean and almost new! Yes, great for the rear but not so great for the front - but, still good. The pressure that can be applied through the use of a powerball on a drill has a really shiny result without the level of work.
And yes, having real mags is insane - they seem to be alive at times - sort of like rust never sleeps!

AMEN TO THE POWERBALL!
Bought the Mini and went to work on moderately gray mags-haven't touched them in 3 months. Cripes a Mighty! Finished all four to perfection in
1/3rd the time of my old regimen. No more 4-0 steel wool!
Used Mothers polish and my old friend toilet paper to remove residue-took a fraction of the time and my hands don't hurt. I could do this everyday if I lost my mind. Seriously, it's so much easier. I've got it soaking now in hot water, a splash of Castrol Super Clean and Dawn dish soap. I'm really hoping it cleans out well.
Thanks to all you guys for the recommendation-I never bought it because Mr Perfect Foose has been shilling it for years and I thought it was a gimmick. Hearing it from you guys as users was the best.
Now to try Mr Buffer! (but I can't imagine how much better it could be than this...)
