Restoring paint work.

[Steven Goral]

Whats best for restoration of the paintwork?

I'm getting the beast valeted n the morning so I'll know more then, but tge paint looks very dull. Is it worth buying a buffing machine? And will a cheap one do? Or do I have to break the bank to get a good shine.

My friend "mops" his car. He uses essentially a big angle grinder and a mop head with an assortment of G3/G7 mop juice.

It makes the car look like it came from the factory.

From my understanding it requires some skill to not burn the paint as it's quite easy.

I'm not too knowledgeable on different grades of the mop juice

If you dont have electrical gear you can make it by hands; requires a lot of time and strenght tho Plus it's more safe for paint.
