are you sanding and then polishing by hand? I’ve said it recently too but epoxy surfaces don’t lend themselves very well to polishing. Unless you try a metal polish type, I’ve had pretty good success with that before
I would add a few papers in there, like a 1000 and 2000grit.
You should use a polishing compound AFTER you use a rubbing compound (as those tend to haze surfaces) the polishing comound will remove finer scratches and haze. Then wax and buff
what I’m doing is wet sandign with 1200 then 2000 then going to the aquabuff…is this ok?
JRL, what do you mean by spur the wool?
Fastrr, ya per definately is better for polishing, got that thing looking like glass!
You can buff after 1000 grit with Aqua 2000. So the way your doing it will work just fine.
Spuring is a way of cleaning/fluffing the buffing pad without stopping what your doing to properly clean the pad in a sink.
What I do is cut a “V” shape into one end of a mixing stick. Then while the buffer is spinning you angle the stick on the pad as to where it will drag accross the wool and lightly fluff it while also knocking off any gunked up polishing compound.
Be really carefull to keep the stick from catching the wheel wrong. You can obviously hurt yourself badly if the stick catches the wool. Youll see what I mean. Theres an obvious right and wrong way to do this.
