GOOD BUFFER N COLOUR RESTORER??
right well as half of you know I tried T-cuting my RST and left it on a bit too long
and now cant get it back to how it was by just using elbow grease.
just gonna buy a buffer, anyone got any recommendations???
and also have i to just use T-cut (not leave it on as long tho ) or buy something different? (got lots of fine scratches I need to get rid of)

look on machinemart.co.uk or similar and have a look at the stayer ones. I have one - think it was about £130ish. very good piece of kit with adjustable speed so its easy to use. avoid the cheap halfords crap - neither use nor ornament.

G3 good luck is what it should be called if youve never mopped a car before i can guarantee that you will be down to the primer in about a min with G3.
IMO take it to a bodyshop to be done properly or buy a 'polisher' from Makro or where ever and put a bit more time into it.. you will get the same result but without removing half your paint!

any decent bodyshop or valeting company would be able to sort it expect to pay anywhere between £50 - £100 to have the whole outside mopped and then polished. Lot cheaper than buying a polisher and all the compound
