ponyjr1647545514 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Ok guys, i just bought my first buffer, a 7" Black & Decker random orbital. It came with three bonnets, a cutting, polishing and finish I believe. Are there any tips that you have for starting out? recommended chemicals(easily found)? I plan on first washing the car, following up by claying, then using turtle wax polish/cleaner, and finally waxing with Zymole. Thanks!

wnaplay1647545503 Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Use play sand to make the initial cutting of old wax build up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford Automotive Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Here's my words of advice... Let the buffer do the work, and keep it moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponyjr1647545514 Posted March 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Ok well thanks for the advice 360, and hopefully that BBF stays at the track most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin R. Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Go find an old hood and practice on it. That is what I did. I was too scared of messing up my black paint. You really learn a lot of techniques and what you will initially do wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Termin8er04 Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Should have got a dual orbital buffer..It works real well and you don't need to worry about hurting the paint. Then again I don't know how bad the paint is your workin with... What color car are you working with? The products you mentioned suck IMO. You really need to buy offline to get good stuff.

You are going to increase your likelihood of burning the paint with a buffer ten-fold with that shit. Get something with more work time like Menzerna online.
