Although most of the cab had been color-sanded a while ago, due to getting side-tracked by the 240Z and life in general, I finally got around to buffing out some of the panels today. Once the clear was sanded with 600, then 1000, 1500 and 3000, the buffing can begin, accomplished with coarse rubbing contact and a wool pad, then finished with a fine polish and a foam pad to fill in and remove the marks from the coarse compound.
The rubbing compound goes everywhere, so I covered the parts that where already painted black.
After the first round, the dullness of the scratches from the 3000 grit where mostly gone...
And after a second round, the shine starts to come back. The finer compound will bring the shine back a final wax will make it show-ready!
