Re: Question about Jeweling?
I've only used the term "jeweling" in reference to plastics, ie headlights, tail lights, etc because once they've been freed from all surface defects, the way light hits the reflective inner housings, they appear "jeweled."
I don't like that term to be applied to paint, I prefer surface mirroring or paint perfecting if anything other than finish polishing. It all has to do with the final touch given prior to any sealant or wax applications.
And I also believe that a dual action orbital polisher is very capable of this task, when used appropriately. I had fantastic luck with my Flex when when I made the final lap on a GTR with a black CCS pad and Menzerna FF. However, my Makita 9227c, an LC black foam VC pad and 3M's Ultrafine Machine polish is a combo I will never be without.

So if your not jeweling what are you doing?
