FYI... I`m not a true autopian, but try. :thumb:
I sold a car on Ebay and it`s being picked up tomorrow. It`s black paint was really bad with heavy swirls. I wanted to do the new owner right and at least attempt to correct some of it. So, I ran to Harbor Freight and picked up the cheap orbital buffer, and got a blue S.M. Arnold pad. I had some Meguiars 80 and hoped with the buffer it would correct some/most of it. Well, I`m pleasantly surprised at how much correction I achieved and at the same time didn`t do any damage (1st time using high speed buffer!). Only thing is it didn`t quite finish off enough to just apply a wax. There is an ever so slight haze or cloudiness if you look at just the right angle under the lights. I do have a PC, but don`t have enough time to do both a polish and wax step. Would any of the OTC cleaner waxes be able to take care of the slight haze using the PC? Something like Meg or Mothers cleaner wax, or ColorX, or ??? Not concerned about durability at all, just want it to finish nicely and offer enough protection for his journey home.
