Hey there. I sand blast Acetone-smoothed ABS parts from time to time. It gives a lovely silky texture and, so long as you’re careful with the Acetone, you needn’t lose any detail. Far as PLA’s concerned, I’ve yet to try it but I imagine it wouldn’t completely remove striations for prints above 150 micron layer height. As I say, it can give great results but the dust gets everywhere so you need to find somewhere well away from your printer to do it. And make sure you wear a respirator and eye protection! Cheers!
