A worn out tape head will show a depression that looks like a pit. This cannot be cleaned. I have never heard about polishing, leveling and get best results. So basically you grind it and smooth it out?
That is news to me.

Polishing works to clean oxidation but won't fix a worn tape head if it has too many hours on it...
Polishing is just cleaning the contact surface on the head.
