Is there any way to polish anodized aluminum to a mirror like finish?

Not practically speaking. Anodizing is transparent so you will see the surface of the raw metal under the anodized layer. If there is color then the transparency is obscured slightly by the color but the color will not be mirror-like because it reflects one color more than others.

If the raw metal under the anodized layer is not polished to a mirror like surface, you will not be able to polish it until you’ve polished all the way thorugh the anodized layer (removing it). This is a hard layer but most of the time it is thin. All anodized aluminum is hard. "Hard" anodizing is simply a thicker layer.
