I never really attempted this for fear of burning thro the laquar, how am i best of doin it, should i start off at a low speed on the bufer or just make sure i dont keep the buffer of one spot for 2 long?
also how do you get into the fidlly gaps ie wing mirrors and inside spoke on alloys?
Any help/online guides on this would be much appreciated,

Very fine sand paper, lots of water to flat it back!
Then buff it back up, use the buffer on a slow speed and keep the panel wet so it reduces chance of burning the paint

wet sand the panel by hand with 1500 paper until the paint is smooth, then use g3 on the rotary again with plenty of water, using long sweeps side to side until it brings up a shine, then finish with g10 or finesse-it or something similar. just stay away from edges.

what about fiddly things like the wheels and mirrors where there are fiddly edges, how do you get into them?
i will also be using the buffer to take wax/polish off with it has 6 speeds, shall i also start at a low speed when using the wools mit on the rotary to stop burning of the paint, or will this not happen with a wool mit??
