I use stainless steel media, does a nice job, works pretty much on every alloy, I just did some aluminum Supercharger drive parts, looks like I spent all day on the buffing wheel they came out so nice, tumble/vibratory is really great, gets into EVERY crevice and polishes 100%

FYI I do vibratory/tumbling with water and soap solution along with the SS media, keeps the balls clean! otherwise they get gummy
