Good point, I should have added that. It's a lot of work to hand polish/buff a Cat.
On the album of my H18, I used a Porter Cable variable speed polisher, both to compound & apply the wax, & buff it. I started hand sanding, decided the tool was well worth the cost.Different products request different speeds for best use. I got a model with the velcro pads & velcro sheepskins.
When compounding you can use a sheepskin til it loads up, peel it off & toss in a bucket of water, slap a new one on & keep going. When the second one loads, peel it & re-stick the first one on, then spin it to remove water, apply compound & keep going. You can do an entire hull in a short time. Same for polishing/buffing. the sheepskin makes it real easy to work into/over the curves & inside radius. Stripping the hull of all hardware is easier than working around all the fittings.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Edchris177 on Jan 28, 2017 - 10:27 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
