As for polishing unless you have the the atypical highly polished Corain there is no "polishing" of the typical satin finish...
Yes you can "polish" Corian to a high shine. It will also highly scratch. The process involves sanding starting at 600 and going through 3000 grit. If you have just a few slight scratches in your polished Corian, start with 1000/1500. Finish with 2000 (for a fairly shiny shine) and 3000 for a really shiny shine.

Hi Dan...yes, I clean with most any cleaner, but I do polish mine also. I like the Weimer's granite and corian polish, and I also used their Stainless Steel polish on the granite and the sinks...works great! (Can purchase both of these in Wal-mart cleaning supply section)
I also use a polish/wax, purchased at Lowe's, can't remember the name, but it is specifically for use on corian and granite tops. Rub it on and buff it off. (It's in the MH and we're in Myrtle Beach right now, or I'd go get it and give you the name)
These will give you a clean and slightly glossy look; the more you use it, the better it looks, in my opinion. Also helps keep water spots down.
Hope this helps!
