Ain't gonna happen.  That "specific enough for ya? :-)

It will take a couple of days to get most of the yellow out and 
sanding/buffing should be put off for a couple of more days to give the keys 
a chance to dry thouroughly (for best results). Then there will be the 
inevitable re-/bleaching/peroxiding/gluing/whatever, which starts the cycle 
all over again.
 If you push the sanding/buffing too quickly the tops will have a distinct 
grainy appearance and feel when they finally dry out.................
