buffer

Well, I went overboard and bought a nice buffer. It's an ATD-10511 7 inch polisher. I also bought some really good 3M wax - one for taking out swirl marks and one called 'Ultrafine', along with the correct buffing attachments for each. I now have a new respect for bodywork professionals...

Hey guys I just got my buffer for 20bucks and some few pads.Its a Vector(have no clue if its good or not). I thought it was a good deal, but wat stuff would be best for my car and and if I could get some steps on applying them. I searched but couldnt find any threads...sorry if this a worthless...

So i got something like this just to make it easier to apply polish and wax. i'm a casual detailer so no porter cable for me. I couldnt resist the $20 price tag with the turtle wax brand name After using it today, a couple hours later i felt tingling and numbness in my wrist area. So...

Hello, so i wet sanded my headlights (1500grit) and I now I need to buff and polish it to get rid of that frosted look. I dont have access to a good buffer so i was wondering what is the cheapest way to do this. I know the 3M headlight restore kit comes with basically what I need but has...

Base on my criteria you think this should be fine? I don't want to spend $150 (PC). I don't want to tire my hands out. I want something portable. Remove some light scratches. Car doesn't have to look show room. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00911597000P

well im thinking its time to finally take the plunge and get a PC ive been detailing my car for years by hand and have always been happy with the out come but not that my car is getting some body work done (in a accident) and ill have a fresh rock chip free surface i want to have the maximum...

hey I know you guys are crazy about the PC, but I don't want to shell out that much when my goal is only applying polish and wax (gets so tiring doing it by hand) I am not interested in smoothing paint or removing fine lines and all the other wonderful things the PC does. I'm looking for...

Hello all, i know some of you are gonna say 'USE SEARCH' but honestly most of the time i find the info found to be somewhat inaccurate or just outdated. I have owned my 02 type S ABP for almost a full year and i really love the color, the paint for the most part is in excellent shape, except...

I have some some really nasty 1500 grit sanding marks on my bumper. I have a shipment of touchup paints from Paintscratch.com coming and was wondering if some clearcoat would fix the problem instead of using a buffer because I do not own one and do not want to get one just yet (trying to save...

So i just bought a car polisher or buffer for $18 at a garage sell... BUT the rpm is at 3000 and its not adjustable just one set speed... ive searched and saw that anything above 2000 rpm is sanding speeds... is it safe for my car? The box did say its for automotive. Please help i dont wanna be...

ill try to get to the point - I do tail lights, and i need to color sand these. the problem is i cannot find a cheap powerful enough yet SMALL buffer to use on these. I have a cheap 10'' orbital hand buffer thing but it doesnt spin fast enough. i only wet sand them with 2000grit.. and use...

ive never buffed before but i always wanted to get one and today i am going to get a fat ass check and thought maybe i should get one now. i know porter cables are the best for beginners so i found the porter cable 7424 polisher for 99 bucks. Is this the best choice of the porter cables...

Well here the situation... I have a 03 abp-s. Its in beautiful condition for its age. You can tell it was well maintained by the previous owners. Anyways, the previous owner obviously used bathroom towels on it because theres swirl marks all over the thing. You can see them unless its in direct...

Has anyone heard anything about Makita buffers? Im looking into a Makita 9227C, just seeing if anyone has experience with makita or this exact buffer. Thanks Jim

What's the best wax you guys have found that would not require the investment of a buffer? Meg seems a regular... For regular waxing...not the in between wax spray type. Dont say search #1 Search result: Poll: *New* Underwear poll!!! ( 1 2 3 4 5 ... Last Page ) Lil' Red

i have a orbital buffer but i dont really care for it. i think a rotary buffer ( if that is what its called ) is better. when i worked at a body shop those fuckers could really make a car shine. i cant duplicate it with this orbital buffer from craftsman. what are your opinions. cuz...

This was mentioned inside of another thread BY another memeber. I just wanted to make it known for the people looking to buy this buffer. I just ordered mine and the total came out to $126.50 USD shipped. They also throw in the 6" backing plate at no charge. Comparing to other sites on the...

We use a Porter Cable buffer at work to do details. I was wondering what you all think is a good buffer to get for my own personal use and to do details on the side. Thanks in advance. Idrive
