Hey everyone
I got someone to buff my car a week ago and when i picked it up it was dark out so it looked perfect. The next day though in the sun i noticed there is buff swirl marks all over the car. I'm guessing he didn't do the stage after the buff were u buff it again to get out all the buff swirls. anyway hes gone away for the summer and i cant stand how my car looks. I don't have a buffer to do it my self and even if i did i have never buffed before so i was HOPING there is some stuff i can get at a auto shop and wax it by hand to get it out and get the car looking nice.

thanks in advance

Jason

 

Your assumption is right in that he skipped a step or didnt know how to properly finish down his one step polishing. Unfortunately for you the only way to remove buffer trails is with a jewling polish/pad combo. You can try a glaze....that will hide some of the marks but will still look like **** in direct sun.

Find a better detailer and let them work out the imperfections left over.

 

Did he use a rotary do you know?

 

Crap that suck, i guess that proves once again u pay for what u get, as for what he used no i don't know sorry, i wish i did. I'm located in toronto ontario anyone happen to know a good place i can go to get this fixed that i can trust?
thanks a lot for your replys!

 

If you buff it again with swirl remover you'll be good. Black is tough..

 

Do yourself a favor and head over to autogeek and talk to those guys. They know what to do.

Ya man buffing takes alot more work then people expect. it has alot of steps to make black look good. Like they all said your not gona get all the swirl marks out unless you start over with the whole process. you might try a hand applied wax meguiars gold class its pretty good. you might also try the new paint powerball from mothers. again black is hard to hide. good luck

 

use gm swirl free polish,it works really good, just keep your buffer on slow and you can watch it come out. good luck.
