Re: Ottawa-Ontario. Buffing help !
The hardest thing ive encountered as far as highspeed buffing goes is the Mercedes Benz black paint. You can buff with wax and leave holograms in their clear coat. Are you a shop owner looking for a good detailer, or a car owner looking for a good detailer ? The final steps are crucial. I would love to spend some time to show you. Good luck !

Re: Ottawa-Ontario. Buffing help !
I can help. I've trained shop owners in the past to do not only good work, but great work and free of holograms. Also, I highly recommend you search some of my previous "click and brag" threads in the 'Pro Details' forum.

Re: Ottawa-Ontario. Buffing help !
I'd certainly be up for the job. I've got thousands of hours on the rotary polisher and DA and am great at teaching people new things. I love final polishing as well, which where your old guy seems to have missed. Feel free to check out some of the work I've posted.

Re: Ottawa-Ontario. Buffing help !
I haven't used my Hitachi in forever, and when I did I'd usually finish with the PC.
FLEX4LiFE
We should do a Ottawa-Toronto get together in Ottawa, LOL.
