Greetings fellow autopians I am new to this site as I am also to proper auto care and was wondering if this would be a proper buffering tool. :confused: Here are two links.

The products that I will be using this with are Final Polish II, Finishing Touch Glaze and FMJ from the Menzerna line.



My car is a red 1999 Pontiac Trans-Am WS6 so it will be a little tricky polishing the ram-air hood and the rear spoiler area.



P.S. any tips you might have for me are more than welcome!:)

I had already searched around an pretty much saw that the 7274 PC was the best, but money wise I can only afford the vector buffer which is sold at the local PEP boys for $40 :( . I was only trying to get some feedback on the vector buffer, or should I just polish by hand until until I have gatherd enough money for the 7274? :confused:



Thanks for the answers anyway:)



Also any Trans-Am owners got any tips as to the best way to polish the ram-air hood and the rear spoiler area?:)

Ya You need to buck up and get the PC use 4 inch pads you`ll never get anywhere with that big 10 inch buffer.

PS if you got The big O and some TS you would be ahead of the game with money and you wouldn`t need the glase
