Easy to do with 4" pads... even out with powder, sandpaper or screens.

I would cut the pieces out first, then hone them. What Alex said, 4" pads, cut the polish off with 220 grit, then finish with honing powder.
These pads work well for cutting off the polish:

These are even more aggressive on the lower grits:

This is the honing powder that will leave a nice, even finish:

Apply it with water, LOW speed, like 600-800rpm with these white pads:

Then Seal it with Proseal:

Or MB-24 if odor is an issue:
