Maybe you should make it your next-to-last year, Azahari :-)

You are looking for a summary on the finishing methods for 15 different materials when any one of them could fill a book. I'd suggest you borrow Volume 5 "Surface Engineering" of the ASM Metals Handbook. That will give you a great start on this difficult project. Good luck.
