Thanks! I wish i knew how to use a buffer so I could do a buff and polish in there too, but I'm sure I would do more harm than good

I have one and do alot of machine polishing for people for extra cash lol

tips are keep the surface wet , use a hand held water sprayer dont apply too much pressure in one spot and keep moving it around , avoid contact with plastics as can burn them.......

when i clay bar a car , will be the first time for my avant , i clay, and machine polish 2 layers of wax into it, colour polish , finishing polish and then by hand use magiures next gen tec wax to seal the wet shine

the avant might take two days to do depending on what time i start it lol

My paint simply doesn't look good enough to justify that much work...

I just tore up a $210 rim by running smack into a curb while going around a curve.
