On the surface that touches the support, I see lots of thin lines. On other surfaces, I see small grids. So I want to make the resulting model to look smooth and shinny as if they were commerical products.

Sorry man this is not injection molding. Post processing is required so maybe if the part is only to look nice and not have mechanical strength, try PLA and sand/paint to achieve your goal of production quality. Do a google search for 3d printing post processing to get some ideas on what is required and works.
