| 2000 rpm for buffing, 1200 rpm for polishing  i worked as a detailer for 2 years in a body shop. the best way to learn is by just doing it. practice on a junkyard door or something. keep the pad flat on the panel. _________________  |

what polish can i get off the shelf at my local advance/autozone?
or do i 'need' to be going for some high dollar stuff that needs to be ordered?_________________ id rather drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow.My ZEN: 1991TT Charcoal Pearl/Custom Sparco interior/UR/Z1/ 2x JWT intake/Back: JDM MR2/Front: GTZ + Clears |
