Andrew was teaching someone how to use a rotary buffer. He turned his back for just a moment and the guy forgot to keep the foam cutting pad moving. The paint heated up. Being that this was a fresh respray, and with the level of solvents still trapped in the paint, the extreme heat caused the solvents to ignite and the vehicle went up in flames.
It's very important to note that all of the above is a total and complete fabrication, and it just goes to show you can't believe everything you read on the Interwebs.

You're absolutely right Mike. I believe you. I just don't believe what Andrew titled this thread. "A little fire"??? It's important to keep an eye on the rotary buffers. whewww.
