You can wet sand it, or polish it with plastic polish after getting it sanded down. Reality is, delrin does not polish up to a bright sheen polish though. Nature of the material.

As mentioned, Delrin is tough to polish. Once you get it as close to polished as you can, saturate a piece of 0000 steel with WD40 and wet sand it.
