7shades Posted April 23, 2008 Report Posted April 23, 2008 A good detailer can rotary buff without leaving swirl marks. Its all about technique and using a high rpm compound. Quote
philbey Posted April 23, 2008 Report Posted April 23, 2008 yep. But unless you already know a good detailer, its just 1 quick buff away from being screwed as you determine if he's a good detailer or not haha. Quote
Rusty1 Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 Diesel is also good for faded paint, I have done it cos I didnt belive it and sure enough it works, I didnt buff it I just wiped it on, aparently it comes up better if you buff it. Just soak a rag and wipe on. :hmm: Quote

camerondownunder88 Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 HAHA Reminds me of when I do engine changes WD-40 is handy and I find spray that on those dirty hand marks on the cars panels mark starts running I use it to clean panels also cleans and shines. But I polished some panels in WD-40 I found a tad of residue and honestly I think it affected the paint a bit. So be cautious with WD40 but for removing dirt off car use it all the time then clean that spot. But I like cooking oil idea will try that one day :yes: Quote
Roo Posted April 24, 2008 Report Posted April 24, 2008 I heard brake fluid brings the shine back...... Quote

Trev Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 A good detailer can rotary buff without leaving swirl marks. Its all about technique and using a high rpm compound. They actually use a low rpm, High rpm heats up the compound. Quote
7shades Posted April 25, 2008 Report Posted April 25, 2008 My bad... I meant a compound made for rpm ie: instead of an orbital Quote
