    Mirror glaze

    Here is my attempt at making my car look good, I hate polishing / waxing by hand so I decided to give this $29 random orbital buffer a try, I know good PC's are in the $150+ rango so if this one was crappy it's ok as it was only $30.

    I've used meguiar's products, and picked up fine-cut cleaner, show car glaze and hi-tech 26 wax. I've used #26 before and always liked the results, even applied by hand.




    Quick shot of the tool




    I think it's doing it's job just fine, managed to remove all water spots/bird dropping spots and most of scratches from the paint. Only the very deep scratches are still there but you have to look very close to notice them.



    another view from different angles

    close up's





    Today I am going to do the rest of the car.

                FYI, I usually use #7 before final wax/sealant and after as well. Results are top notch! Now go finish whole car.

                  Did you happen to buy this at costco by any chance? They were selling a cheap one there, and I tossed the idea around of trying one.
