       <abstract>
          Nb3Sn cavities are now routinely prepared by depositing few micron thick Nb3Sn coatings on Nb cavities using tin vapor diffusion process. For the¬¬ case of niobium there is a significant improvement after electropolishing (EP), but electrochemical finishing treatment on Nb3Sn coatings has not been studied. Controlled removal of the first few layers could lead to a smoother and cleaner surface that is conducive to better RF performance. Several samples, which were coated with Nb3Sn by vapor diffusion process in a JLab sample chamber, were used to explore polishing parameters, such as I-V characteristics, removal rate, topography, etc. Preliminary results from the first runs are discussed here.
