These hubs, Campy Nuevo Tipo/Valentino, don't have any anodizing IIRC. So buffing is a neat option. The first tool I'd go to for the trimming off of the spoke ridges is a sharp knife. I would do as little sanding or filing as possible. When a buffed/shinny surface is the goal file or sanding marks are the reason why good buffing takes some care/time. If sanding was needed start with as fine a grit as possible. I've always under judged how long it takes to polish metal. Andy
