It doesn't get much more elegant than this.......
That's a beauty Charles!
My new Handi Butler should arrive today or tomorrow, so I'll be giving my Omega a day at the spa this week-end. It's all original, including the bag. Here is a before shot of it. When it is done, it will be a stunner. Always loved he Rosewood trim with the shine of a new or freshly polished Omega.

The Handi-Butler is fun to use, and fine for flatware and hubby's golf clubs, but it doesn't have sufficient power or surface area to take on a Kirby. All it's going to to is swirl around the layer of tarnish and dirt.
You'd probably get better results hand-polishing with Mother's Mag Polish and then maybe doing a final run-over with the Handi-Butler to further buff up a shine.
I've used the Handi Butler
for this before, and a lot depends on the condition of the Kirby in question. If the machine is deeply scratched and / or pitted, then you are right. The butler doesn't have enough power to remove the deep scratches and pitting. My Omega, however, has been well cared for over the years and doesn't have any scratches or pitting to speak of. Wait until it is done. I think you'll be surprised.

The Ezee wasn't made by Scott and Fetzer. Scott and Fetzer hadn't even met each other yet when the Ezee was new. It was built by the Frantz Premier Company, the same company that made and sold Jim Kirby's first electric vacuum (the Frantz Premier) in 1911. I have no idea who the Ezee is even on Scott and Fetzer's timeline - doesn't anyone at Kirby today know that they didn't make it?

Most Elegant Looking Kirby
In my opinion, were the gold plated ones.
