These cranks are quite hard, much harder than old school cast cranks with standard nitriding.

I was going to mention it before, but forgot. You will be sanding all day with that setup before you make a serious dent. That polishing info you put up is good, but it isn't for getting out the journals. That is just for very light stuff.
IMO you will spend a lot of time on it, then either give up and have it polished or just run it the way it is.
That's kind of the lead-in to my last post.
