I would like to dull the shiny part to blend in with the rest of the cap. Can anyone with experience recommend the right grit compound to do this job?
Use 1000 grit wet or dry and use with sanding block, and water (3 gals) with a little (1 tsp) liquid detergent in it. Back and forth in one direction, then back and forth at 90* to original strokes. Don't use much pressure.
NO sanding!
Try a search on here for waxing, polishing, etc.

Here's what a Meguiar's rep recommended - with Barry standing next to him.
1. Rent a dual action polisher.
2. Buy 3 yellow foam pads.
3. Use a cleaner wax.
Lots of other solutions have been posted over the years - but never seen a recommendation for sanding!
Of course none of those were for *dulling* the shiny part/s..:R
