[QUOTE="todd abbott, post: 4028121, member: 4618"] The porter cable can provide some fantastic results, years ago when I first got into using a power polisher I practiced on my company car:-D if you do a google search for Autotopia and Griot's Garage they both have some great instructions on how to properly polish. Heres some quick tips: use the proper pads for polish or wax being applied, don't mix polishes on the same pad, use the most mild polish for the job at hand and repeat application as needed, keep the polisher moving, pretty obvious, but don't stay in one spot, I use a simple back and forth motion, tape all the plastic trim and be careful on metal edges as the paint is easier to burn there, florecent light the garage-good lightning=better results, take your time-the first few times out had me thinking I could do it by hand faster, maybe but no way would I have gotten the same results, flat out awesome, minor imperfections gone and a shine you couldn't touch hand polishing. Good luck, Todd [/QUOTE]
