Cutting & Buffing Your Paint

If you're nuts and want that $3000 paint job look, I spent some time learning how to do this from some old timers. I documented doing it (after I practiced it a lot) and have documented it where I have my 47 1/2t pictures. It's in a section called Cutting & Buffing. If you are after a factory paint job, this may be a little overkill, but feel free to look...

I learn so much from all of your postings, and enjoy contributing what I can.
