Today was my first time using a buffer. I used an orbital buffer by Vector ( Waxxpro Random Orbital - 6"). Not an autopian style buffer, but I`m a buffer rookie, so I wanted to try my hands at something simple. I must say, it came out pretty good. The Dodge Durango was the test. You will also find a pic of my tracker.....didn`t use the buffer on it, but it was detailed by hand with qew, meg`s #9, NXT.



Process for the Durango:



1. Wash (QEW)

2. Clay (ClayMagic)

3. Poorboy`s Pro Polish (Used Orbital)

4. Clearkote Carnauba Moose (By hand)

Looks great!!! :bow

It not the tool (if adequate) that counts, it the skill of the craftsman. Nice job AJ. :xyxthumbs

The machine was surprisingly easy. No need for icy hot today.:D
