the limits of a RO buffer

pete? · Mar 28th, 2005, 02:30 PM

ok, when it gets warmer i am going to clay bar my car. i also have a random orbital buffer and would like to take full advantage of it. i have read around on verious car detailing forums and info sites and have found i could use a fine hand polishing compound with it or should i just use my hands to do this? i also am going to be useing medlion wax by meguiers. so its;
1. clay
2. polish/pre wax cleaner
3. wax
4. buff with a microfiber bonnet.

any thing else? i am selling the car and a shiny car always gets more money.

I'm also doing the same thing here in a month or so.

1. Clay Magic
2. Meguiars Medallion Paint Cleaner
3. Meguirs Medallion Paint Protectors

I have also heard great things about the Klasse AOI + multiple coats of Klasse Glaze topped with P21S. I am going to try this combo on the Sentra and the Medallion combo on the pathfinder to see which looks better. Good luck with your sell

I really dont use RO buffers that much.. at least not the 30 dollar kind from sears... that DA in the other thread i usae at werk, but i hate liquid wax, so i dont use it for my own vehicle...

the cheapo random orbit ones like the $30 sears unit are only good for smearing wax around. other than that, don't mess with them.

If it's a high speed one, then that's a different story..
