In Reply to: After 9 refin's I bought an Orbital Buffer ! posted by AC on June 12, 2003 at 19:32:14:
I use a 6" ran. orb. buffer on the front & back & a 2" mini paint roller rigged up to fit in a hand drill. Corners are done by hand. The problem w/ my mini paint roller in the drill is the RPM's throw off the compound, Im working on a cut away butter dish to catch the throw off. I use auto compounds by Presta & start buffing after 1000 grit. I use Presta 1000 first then switch to 3000, the number corrisponds to the grit scratches it will remove. 1000 leaves it shiney & 3000 acts as a swirl remover. Im not sure the 3000 was even necessary but I did notice a differance on glossy black. Good Luck
