Actually, like Jarvis says, you can't really polish the aluminum. If the coating is hazy then they should have pulled the coating and applied a new one. If the glass wasn't fully polished out (you'll more notice that by the rings of clear vs. cloudy surface of the coating) then you spent money on something that the glass wasn't ready for. If you use a eyeloupe magnifier (anything over 8X will do nicely) and look at the surface, you will be able to see if the haze is from pits on the surface or from the top of the coating.
