  • #6 removing buffer marks?

    My father just got a brand new Caddy and it seems to have some buffer swirls on it. I just amazed that the dealer have unqualified guys using a rotary. Any way I was just wondering could I get away with being lazy and remove it using #6 cleaner wax with a PC, or would I be wasting my time and do the proper #80/#26 combo?

    Hey,

    When it comes to buffer marks, removing them really depends on the hardness of the paint. I would suggest trying the #80 Speed Glaze with a W-8006 Polishing Pad. If that does not work, and it may not, you will need to go more aggressive, to #83 DACP and a clean W-8006 pad.

    Again, paint hardness is the question. Sometimes the only way to remove rotary instilled buffer marks is to use a rotary. However, give the above a try first.

      Tim makes a great point and I would just like to add that the depth of the swirls will also be a factor as to how hard it will be to remove them. Depth is a factor of product, (chemical), type of pad and even pressure.

      Your best bet is to do a test spot to see what you can do, but more than likely a dedicated cleaner/polish will be necessary to do the job right the first time.
