Thank you sir,
I don't suppose you'd share which buffs you are finding success with for your finish?
Thanks

Buffers seem to be one subject you will get replies to that are all over the spectrum. The Grizzly, if I am not mistaken, is the same as theone SM used to offer (they painted it red). The Caswells are nice, but a bit high on the rpms (for nitro & waterbournes). I think for now, I will get the Grizzly since I already have all the pads & motor.

I should point out that the new SM is quite nice. I love the extra long shafts and the large pad washers (whatever you call them). The shaft is thicker than most also. If SM would offer this to a much broader market, the price could come down. Yes, designed with guitars in mind, but still applicable to many other kinds of projects.
