This morning I spent some quality time with my buffer and guitar.
I've been buffing KTM9 thats been curing for 3 weeks now.
I'm using Menzurna compound.
I think I have my finish(KTM9) a bit to thin and I'm thinking I have to add another coat or 2.
I'm also thinkin' that the Menzurna residue needs to be removed from the KTM9 before more finish is applied.
How would a guy do that?
Sanding? Naptha? Methyl Hydrate?

Naphtha is safe for cleaning KTM 9. I have used it.

A couple wipe offs with naptha should clear off the wax from the menzerna, I resprayed nitro in a touch up area after buffing, wiping this way caused no problems.
