How to use a buffer

6" Compact Palm Polisher

This is the one i got. I should of included this in my original post.

As stated in an earlier post practice on a cheaper car! And tape off the ridges & areas that meet decals as that is likely where you might burn through.

He likely will not burn the paint with that. It always pays to practice on an older car first.

I highly suggest you watch the video's on the JunkMan's Youtube channel. Dude is a legend among the Viper and Vette crowd in regards to detailing.

I agree 16 bucks? Man a buffer is something you want to be very careful with. That is cheaper than most of the polish you would use.

Well i don't have an older car to practice on. Guess I'll stick to doing it by hand just to be safe.

That thing is really nothing more than a wax spreader, very similar to the 2-handled 10" ones you see sold in big box hardware stores.

You won't hurt the paint with it, but don't expect to see much correcting ability come from it either. It may save you a little time compared to doing it by hand, but not much.

Why do you say this? What about it won't correct anything? At this point i don't need any correction cause iddon't have scratches or swirls. I'm looking for preventative mantainance.
