I doubt it's polished. It's probably a mirror wrap. Much cheaper and less effort.
Ah, yeah, that makes way more sense. TIL mirror wrap is a thing.
There's a company that does mirror polishes of them. I remember seeing a clip from some car show. They'd done a dozen or something, and it was mainly a guy just sitting there using an angle grinder and a big buffer/polishing wheel.
Was going to mention this as well. There's definitely companies out there who do exactly this sort of mirror polish on cybertrucks.
Part of the repair instructors of the original Delorean was to use a specific Scotchbrite/brillo type pad to reapply the texture after buffing.
People definitely have polished one of these to a mirror shine though. It looked awesome.
