Longwave should do the trick. Most amber fluoresces with UV, glowing a blueish to green color. Also, amber will float in a heavy salt water.

I have 1kg Indonesian amber in my collection because I wanted to see how they are compared to those from other ...
True Amber often also has a debris in it too, and can have internal fractures The big pieces with scorpions, beetles or butterflies that are relatively cheap , are extant (modern) in resin
The Burmese amber mines are know for their varied and higher quality amber pieces. If you put aside the ethical aspects of it. it is excellent and high quality Cretaceous amber.

So too much pressure and speed can lead to heating, cracking, or deeper scratches that you will still have to remove… I prefer hand sanding for all but the final SOFT cotton polishing. It takes longer but it gives better control..
