How to improve finish on titanium balls

I am having a problem getting a mirror finnish on some titanium balls. Do you have any suggestions on how I can achieve this finish!

How about switching to electropolishing titanium in house? We can provide safe electrolyte and instructions.

Suggest a mass finishing system. What media you use depends on your volume and/or how fast you want your process. Meaning you can do either a wet or dry process.
