Re: White 1981 Camaro
Performed 3 step on half of the car and a one step on the other half.
Reason is---3 step on the orginal paint and only a one step on recent paint.
Scratches and swirls were bad. Even worst---Embedded dirt. Dirtiest paint ever seen on the original side.

Re: White 1981 Camaro
Paint was hard to cut!
Used microfiber pads with Rupes blue compound for the initial cut.
Removed haze with Rupes yellow pad and polish. Cleaned things up.
Did the BlackFire one Step with Rupes yellow pad. Perfect! And Protected as well.
Took me 5 and half hours to finish. Plus interior/glass and dressed tires too!
CBeast make things very very fast!
I'm very happy with results.
Learn one thing---force rotation can burn through edges in a heart beat!

And, this is why any true newbie to machine polishing should not fall in love with the "Biggest/Baddest" approach.
Even Tommy found this out, and this man has posted incredible results time after time here on AGO.

Re: White 1981 Camaro
Thanks for words PaulMys....!
Free rotating DA polisher is safe for starting out. I'm glad I have 100's of hours behind a free rotating DA polisher. The experience prepped me well for force rotation!
