Been machine polishing then? How difficult is that to do? I tried with the Corsa the other week - though the motor sounds like its going and the pad was pretty much shagged - found it easier to work the compound by hand in the end.

Wat buffer were you using gary. You need to use the 3m g3 and angle grinder style buffer with a hard foam
....with a brew and my favourite biscuits.

Some speed adjustable Makita thing. The pad was fubared if I'm honest - Just tried it to see what it was like. I will find something to do the job properly though Flame pink is getting old fast

A buffer isn't just your average adjustable grinder with a Mop on the end. A proper buffer actually runs at much nicer/steadier speeds and you can control it allot more than a grinder.
