You can tell a man knows how to do paint and body when he has tattoos on his hands and neck.

All you gotta do is good diet and exercise, then you’ll get plenty buff

I worked in a BMW shop in the 90's and was taught that the buffer/polisher/grinder tool suite was one of the 3 most dangerous tools in the shop due to project pieces becoming projectiles. Also, we were not allowed to wear gloves at the polisher as the tool could easily grab the glove and rip your hand off.

White polishing wheel is for Fine polishing； Yellow polishing wheel is for medium polishing； denim buffing wheel is for coarse polishing.

Tried the greaseless compounds few years ago with a cheap buffer. Just got the 1HP variable speed 8" Jet buffer. Trying to decide if i should try greaseless again (my old batch melted and made a mess) or just go with flap wheels up to say 600 grit followed by regular compounds. What do you think?

Without actually seeing it or watching you buff, I would guess that you may be staying in one spot too long, applying too much pressure or using a motor that's spinning too fast. A buffer that runs about 3,500 RPMs is generally what you want, and remember to keep moving and don't apply too much pressure. Don't forget Eastwood.com has forums where you can get more info.

I'd just like to start by thanking Eastwood company for making this "basic" or "start up" video for those looking to getting into polishing! Now, to those adding what they think would be better or what the video left out, don't you think that in a more "intermediate" or beyond video, they would show the things you are claiming this guy didn't add? You cant show how to become a pro in one video but you can help those just starting out by adding some great basic information. This is an "intro" or " basic start" with helpful information to help "beginners", and they succeeded in that department. We will all look into your "professional" wisdom when we get to that point! I really hate how YT has become a bash fest.....

I do a lot of buffing and I have to say this is one of the best videos on KZfaq on the subject. Very accurate information and the guy is very well spoken. Thanks for taking the time to do it. Really enjoyed viewing it.

This is definitely one of the best videos I’ve seen for machine polishing/buffing. I’m get ready to switch to machine and only do really small stuff by hand but have done in by hand for over 20 years now. I want to actually see some of your finished pieces cause you certainly know what you’re talking about. Thanks for you’re time Sir. Much respect ✊🏻
