A very good detailer could do it, alot of body shops dont want to tie up

thier guy doing something like that. Something like that would take me

the better part of a day to do



When I had a detail shop though a buff job like that would run about $150-200.



Now I wouldnt even do that for someone unless they were a good friend or

I had nothing else to do that day. If I spend my day off doing glass work and

paint/gel coat on a boat I make alot more money.



Right now is a tough time for me, I come home about 8:00 at night, have about

1/2 hour or so to play around on here, then its off to bed. Some life I have.

Some write ups will be coming, I promise.

k rob, that was a lot of info, let me review. Yes you were correct in that there is hardly any paint left on it. Some areas are very rough and bumpy. Anyway i have my hands on a quality buffer with variable speeds and a friend with expirence with it. SO... 3M microfinishing comp. at 2300 rpm, then 3m perfect-it III machine glaze, then perfect-it finishing glaze, followed by a good waxing.... right? I don't care about time cuz i want the best possible outcome, but what about price? am i going to be forced into buying rediculous amounts of materials for a somewhat small requirement to get the job done? anymore comments are encouraged...

if you have a friend who does detailing he may have a line of

products he uses and can maybe hook you up with enough to

do a car, which isnt alot at all. To buy all those chemicals and

pads your looking over $100 easy.



For a single stage red car with little paint on it you might want to

consider going with a polish, then a wax. If you have access

to Auto Magic products in your area I would highly reccomend

Auto Magic BC Magic. Its a polish, then go with a hand waxing



While it wont give you nearly the finish of the 3M process, it

might be better if you have very little paint left.
