Just finished wet sanding my roof with 1500, any help on what product and method works best.. and Im on a TIGHT budget and short on time.. thanks for any help.
This is how I do it. 1. after its wet sanded, I like to wet sand it again with 3000 a couple times. This will really speed up the buffing process. Its a little more sanding, but alot less buffing. I hate buffing. 2. As far as buffing goes, use a foam pad. Black is the fine cell foam, softer and less swirl marks. 3. For buffing compound, I like the maguires diamond cut. #10. Its a chemical cut. That means there is no real abrasives, no swirl marks. Keep your buffer speed slow, faster dont mean better, or faster finish. Thats the fastest way to get a perfect finish.
Honestly, as long as it is variable speed, you will be fine. I like the electric version, some people like air buffers. I like the electric buffers because it doesent kill my compressor. Sears has a decent buffer for the money. I use a Snap-on, thats the best electric buffer Ive ever used. And, Ive used them all.
system one it polishes out 1200 grit & its one polish two pads and it sells for around 60 for the kit! really easy product to use
