[QUOTE="ARdoller, post: 571832, member: 8914"] a 6" orbital buffer from Pep Boys/AutoZone is all you need. when i use a 6" buffer it takes me about (im guessing since i dont do it all at once) about 8 hours of buffing. i decided to use a foam pad on my 7" polisher this time around on 2 or 3 sets, and it took about 20min each. believe me, being someone that DOES NOT have professional equipment like paint guns and other body shop tools, you can easily do this yourself without HAVING to use clear coat, without it taking too much effort. this is an up-close picture of them, to show you how shiny and reflective they can get withOUT clear coat.
