How to Use a Car Buffer to Polish & Wax Like a Pro

car buffer

Has your car’s finish become dull and weathered looking? Looking for the perfect car buffer to restore your cars finish to like-new? The BuffPro Buffer can take even the most oxidized, scratched, dull, and neglected auto exterior and return it to its former shine.

Car polishing is an abrasive process, and not one that results in a coating. Polishing cleans the surface by removing the fine scratches and pitted surface rather than coating it. Waxing then protects the freshly polished surface by leaving a thin protective layer on the clear coat. Not only is it protective, but it improves and retains that high gloss look.

The process of polishing and waxing your car requires going over the entire surface of your vehicle multiple times. The advantages of using an electrical car buffer should be clear. Not only can it drastically reduce the time and effort require, a power car buffer can also produce high quality results that can’t otherwise be duplicated. It seems that no matter how careful you are, some hologram shows up or swirl marks appear, and you never really get that deep shine you were looking for. Using a power buffer like BuffPro will result in a quick, smooth finish every time.

The BuffPro Difference

The BuffPro Buffer is the only electrically operated drum style car buffer on the market. The BuffPro uses a drum instead of a traditional rotary design. Because of its design, it has several advantages over other buffing systems:

  • Swirl Marks? NEVER! – Traditional rotary buffers can leave swirl marks even when used carefully. Swirl marks are produced by the rotation of a traditional buffer – but BuffPro rotates axially, as it was designed to create a perfect shine (without swirl marks or holograms) every single time. In fact, with the BuffPro, you couldn’t produce swirl marks on your car even if you tried!
  • Superior Shine in HALF the Time – How much is your time worth? Imagine being able to complete a full buff and polish in HALF the time you spend now.
  • Loved by Amateurs and Professionals Alike – The BuffPro is easy to use by anyone, regardless of past experience. This means that even a complete amateur can do a professional polishing job on any vehicle the very first time they use it.
  • Exceptional Comfort – The ergonomic pistol grips of the BuffPro Buffer keep hand and wrist fatigue to a minimum. No more weird wrist positions required – the BuffPro was designed to be used all day long without discomfort.

How To: 8 Easy Steps to Unbeatable Shine

Clean, polish, wax, and buff your car to an unbeatable shine in half the time as traditional car buffers with these 8 easy steps:

  1. Clean – Give your car a quick wash as you normally would.
  2. Polish – Apply a strip or two of polish onto the surface you will work on.
  3. With the BuffPro on the lowest setting (1), spread the polish over the area you will be working on.
  4. Once the polish has been spread, increase the speed setting on BuffPro and slowly move it back and forth across the surface until it is well-polished or the polish compound is used up.
  5. Wipe away any excess polish.
  6. Coat with Wax – After polishing, apply a coat of wax.
  7. Use your electric buffer to spread the wax evenly. Wait about 5-10 minutes until it dries a little and gets cloudy.
  8. Buff – After the wax dries and gets a somewhat hazy look, but before the wax gets too hard, buff the surface. The shine should really start to pop as you buff away the cloudiness of the wax.

Don’t worry, with the BuffPro car buffer it’s so easy that you’ll get a great shine the very first time you pull it out of the box.

Buff Like a Pro

Because BuffPro was designed by a professional detailer, everything about it has been designed so that professional detailers get the best shine for their customers with the least time and effort. That translates to everyone – not JUST professional detailers, but DIYers as well. The BuffPro polisher is the perfect complement to the home auto shop because it allows you to get the shine you want, comfortably and quickly – leaving more time for you to do the things with your car that you really want to do.

The BuffPro uses centrifugal force to keep the polishing compound toward the outside of the pad, reducing splatters and keeping pads cleaner, longer. This cuts down on the amount of chemicals used and reduces the need for masking. The BuffPro has an electric motor, heat treated precision cut gears and a variable speed locking trigger for ease of use – even for detailers who operate mobile shops.

The Secret to Buffing & Polishing Cars – From the Classics to Brand New Beauties

Cars – The Great American Love Affair

how to polish carsDid you know the first automobile patent was actually issued in 1886 to Karl Benz in Germany, not Henry Ford as most of us would believe? However, we have the Ford Motor Company to thank for beginning assembly-line mass production of the Model T in 1913 at a high-end cost of $850. By 1924, they sold for a mere $290, and suddenly cars were affordable to almost everyone. Thus, the American love affair with the automobile was born!

Whether your car is merely functional to get you from point A to point B, you’re a classic car collector who spends countless hours on restoration, or you’re a sports car fanatic, it’s hard to imagine life without them. The important thing about making any car last and enjoying the drive is upkeep – there’s no better way to lengthen the life of a vehicle and keep its worth than by maintaining it to the fullest. You have to know the secret about how to polish cars. Here are some fun facts about cars and the best-kept secret for easy exterior maintenance.

“Over the course of 2018, Americans collectively spent 70 billion hours behind the wheel.” – AAA

For the Classic Car Enthusiast

If you’re a classic car owner, nothing beats showing off your most prized possession at a local car show. It seems everyone has their favorite and it varies from state to state. Here in Missouri, where BuffPro is headquartered, the most popular classic car is the 1969 Dodge Charger. The 1969 Charger is also the classic automobile of choice in Georgia, Florida, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, and Texas. If you own one of these, you’re probably the envy of vintage car fanatics all over the country!

In neighboring Illinois, the classic car of choice is the 1969 Dodge El Camino. If you head out West to California, it’s the 1967 Ford Mustang, and in Idaho, it’s the 1935 Ford Pickup. The 1964 Ford Fairlane is the most sought-after choice in Oklahoma, and in South Carolina, they’re partial to the 1968 Chevy Camaro. If you’re like us, you love them all!

What most car owners don’t love are the hours spent polishing and trying to remove oxidation, rust, corrosion, scratches, and other sins from the exterior. That’s why you’ll love BuffPro® who knows how to polish cars. Compared to rotary-style buffers, drum-style BuffPro is proven to cut polishing time in half and safely eliminate swirl marks, holograms, and all exterior issues – even cloudy headlights – with ease. Non-rotary BuffPro is the secret to a showroom shine, every time, with less effort and actual joy in the process.

For the Modern Sports Car Fanatic

If you’re a modern car fan or sports car enthusiast, chances are, you go for style and speed. After all, what’s more exhilarating than the excitement of racing down an open stretch of highway in a sleek, high-performance vehicle? Nothing gives the feeling of freedom like the acceleration and fluid ride of a beautiful sport car.

If you’re lucky enough to own one of these, undoubtedly you see the admiration of most the guys (and women) in your neighborhood. Unfortunately, you probably also spend countless hours detailing and polishing your baby and still can’t eliminate those annoying holograms and swirl marks and have to use several different tools, compounds, and pads to try to get the shine you want. The BuffPro buffer knows how to polish cars and will put an end to that once and for all and give you more time to enjoy driving.

Americans have long had passion for fast cars and that’s reflected in the five most popular sports cars today: Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, Chevy Corvette, Nissan GT-R, Porsche 911.

The BuffPro Difference

Whether you’re a collector, sports-car fan, or a functional driver going to work and running errands, you know that proper car maintenance, outside and under the hood, will extend its life, keep it reliable, and make it feel new longer. And, nothing shows pride of ownership like a high gloss shine all the time.

We’re confident, like so many before you, you’ll love our BuffPro buffer for complete exterior car care. If you read our testimonials or ask anyone familiar with BuffPro, they’ll tell you, “Nothing works faster or gives you better results in less time.” That’s because we engineered our high-quality, electric drum-style BuffPro buffer to fix all the frustrating buffing and polishing issues that other products on the market create:

  • Super easy to use the first time – no prior buffing experience necessary.
  • Eliminates annoying holograms and swirl marks – and it’s impossible to make new ones.
  • Buffs and polishes all surfaces (even headlamps) in about half the time as other buffer/polishers on the market.
  • Requires much less physical effort, less compound, and fewer pads.

“Americans spend an average of 17,600 minutes driving each year.” – AAA

The Great American Road Trip Destinations – 2019

car road trip destinationsPlanning road trip destinations, packing up the car, and hitting the open road for summer vacation is one of the great American pastimes. According to AAA Travel, over 100 million Americans are planning a vacation this year and 50 million will be driving to their destination. Whether it’s to a family reunion, a camping trip, or heading to sights previously unseen, road trips are a treasured American tradition. It’s a fantastic way for family and friends to slow down, relax and just enjoy each other’s company. What’s on your itinerary?

America the Beautiful

Our great country has so many options to choose from that it can seem overwhelming. From the Great Lakes of the Upper Midwest, desert scenery of the Southwest, Rocky Mountains, Badlands of South Dakota, Smoky Mountains, Texas Hill Country, Pacific Coast or the beauty and history of New England – the choices are endless.

At BuffPro®, we are proud to be an American company, helping car, truck, motorcycle, and RV- enthusiasts love what they drive and enjoy the ritual of the great American summer road trip even more. Driving enables you to set your own pace, take your time, and soak up the scenery. It truly allows you to enjoy the journey, not just the road trip destinations. To help you plan a driving adventure that will leave you with memories to last a lifetime, here are our top five road-trip suggestions:

Black Hills, South Dakota

If you’ve never been to South Dakota, you’re in for a huge surprise. From Mount Rushmore to the surreal Badlands and the Devil’s Tower, the Black Hills area has over 5-million acres of forest and mountains surrounded by a sea of prairie. It’s rich in western history and natural beauty. Make sure you find time to visit a ghost town as well as the quirky Wall Drug Store, one of the most popular stops on the way to the Black Hills and a uniquely American experience!

The California Pacific Coast

As road trip destinations, the California Pacific Coast region is home to some of the most breathtaking scenery in the United States. The majestic redwood trees and stunning beach views are a photographer’s dream come true. If you love a sporty drive, you will love the narrow, winding, often coastal-edge roads – in fact, it’s a convertible top-down, wind-in-your-hair kind of drive. You can make your way from San Diego all the way up to the Oregon border in about 10 hours and will experience amazing coastal views, seaside villages, and lush untouched forest. Depending on how much time you have, why not enjoy a side trip to Napa Valley and Wine Country?

Historic New England

New England is home to the richest history in the United States and has something for everyone! It’s one of the most beautiful and picturesque parts of the country. The six states that makeup New England – Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont – each have their own flavor. Massachusetts is the heart of New England and has the richest history and influence in this part of the country. Connecticut is largely suburban and home of the prestigious Yale University. Rhode Island is the smallest (and one of the most charming) states in the US. It has a beautiful coastline and some of the oldest and most historic towns in the country. Maine is made up of not only gorgeous coastline but forests, lakes, and rivers. It’s also home to a large black bear population! If you love mountains, make sure to visit New Hampshire, the most mountainous state in New England. Last, but not least is Vermont, the most rural state in America. It consists mostly of picturesque farms and villages and offers great hiking and fishing in the summer. New England has a diverse history and landscape that everyone should experience in their lifetime.

The Desert Southwest

The haunting beauty of the Southwest is unmatched. The mountains and valleys of Arizona, Utah, and Nevada comprise one of the world’s greatest natural landscapes. There is much to be seen on this trip starting with the Grand Canyon, which is truly one of the natural wonders of the world. You’ll also want to take a drive through Monument Valley, a red-sand region on the Arizona-Utah border with incredible towering sandstone buttes. In fact, Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park is a frequent filming location for many western movies.

And let’s not forget the Mother Road – Route 66! Travel west from the Arizona border through the Mojave Desert all the way to California and the Pacific Coast and stop at the fabled hotel-motels along the way for a flashback in time. Finally, no trip through the Southwest would be complete with a stop at the world-famous Hoover Dam.

Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina

This is one trip that everyone should experience. The Blue Ridge Parkway is 469 miles of breathtaking scenery from Virginia to Cherokee, North Carolina. With a speed limit of 45 MPH and no large trucks allowed, you can relax, roll the windows down, and enjoy amazing vistas the entire trip. The region has a long history as an arts-and-cultural destination and there are numerous towns and villages along the way that allow you to explore and experience the culture that’s unique to the Smokey Mountain and Appalachian area.

Why the BuffPro Polishing Buffer Beats More Traditional Buffers

The BuffPro Buffer is the best polishing buffer on the market because it serves as the only available electrically operated drum style buffer.

But what does that mean? First, let’s address how a traditional rotary design works. This will help showcase the advantages of BuffPro’s innovative method over other buffing systems.

Traditional Buffers
Traditional buffers utilize a rotary design with a gear drive. This means the auger, (the threaded part to which the backing plate attaches), is driven directly off the electric motor. This connection results in a very powerful rotating motion. When used by a novice, the power of a rotary buffer can remove paint in a matter of seconds.

Additionally, there are a few other cons that accompany traditional rotary polishing buffers. These include:

  • Hard to use These buffers are meant for professionals and require both skill and expertise to operate. If you use a rotary buffer and are not experienced in its use, you can easily apply too much pressure and burn right through the painted surface.
  • Time-Consuming and Swirls – If you're looking for like-new results, using a rotary polishing buffer simply means more work. You will have to go over an entire surface at least twice. The first time for removing defects, and a second time to remove any swirls left by the first pass. In fact, traditional rotary buffers can leave swirl marks, even when used carefully.
  • Tiresome and Uncomfortable – Using a rotary buffer requires a lot of upper body and back strength. Consider how fatigued a rotary buffer might leave you… and when you’re tired, costly mistakes may happen.

The BuffPro Buffer Difference: Get Beautiful Results in HALF the Time

Imagine being able to complete a full buff and polish in up to half the time you spend now. Everything about BuffPro has been designed so that professional and amateurs get the best shine with the least time and effort.

  • Creates better efficiency for its users by reducing buffing time by up to 50%

  • Lowers costs associated with materials (uses less buffing compound and fewer pads) and professional labor (reduces training time)

Picking the Best Polisher/Buffer for Your Automotive Project

ARE YOU USING THE RIGHT AUTO BUFFER/POLISHER?

Trying to achieve AND maintain that showroom shine? It’s important to have the right auto buffer for your car detailing job. Challenges on the surface of your motor vehicle can be tough to tackle, and the thought of the time-consuming and expensive process that it takes to fix those issues can keep many people from attempting to do anything about it.

From heavy oxidation, uneven surfaces, scratches, and swirl marks, you don't have to dread solving your paint issues – you just need the right auto buffer for the job.

To get that professional shine, we’ve compiled a list of the top questions we hear when people are shopping for that perfect polisher and buffer.

#1. What paint issues will the buffer fix on the surface of my motor vehicle?
You want a buffer that can take on uneven surfaces, orange peel, scratches, and oxidation easily. These are common blemishes you definitely want to be able to erase. The right auto buffer will be able to handle the job.

#2. What paint issues will the buffer fix on the surface of my motor vehicle?
You want a buffer that can take on uneven surfaces, orange peel, scratches, and oxidation easily. These are common blemishes you definitely want to be able to erase. The right auto buffer will be able to handle the job.

#3. Is the buffer and polisher versatile?
Ideally, you want one simple to use tool for all materials and problems. You want a buffer that can polish any relatively flat, smooth surface. Additionally, reusable buffing/polishing pads are a major plus. Washable pads can be used again and again.

#4. Is it comfortable for extended use?
You don’t want your arms to feel like they’re about to fall off by the time you finish an entire car… so comfort is important. Look for an auto buffer that keeps hand and wrist fatigue to a minimum. This is especially important for professionals - you want a product you can use all day long without discomfort.

#5. Is it easy to use?
This is crucial from a professional standpoint - an easy to use polisher/buffer can reduce training time, thus saving you time and money. For the DIY-ers out there, this is important because you don’t want to spend forever trying to figure out a complicated, bulky, or hard to use buffer or polisher. Find an auto buffer that everyone can use - from amateurs to professionals.

#6. Is it efficient?
Efficiency could be the most valuable of all the criteria. You want a polisher and buffer to be accurate, effective, and smart by design so you can restore a high-gloss, durable shine in fewer steps and with less hassle. Why? Because in the end, it will save you time and money for a few reasons, including:

  • Less mess and time spent on cleanup
  • Lower costs associated with labor and materials
  • Less buffing compound and fewer pads needed
  • Less time spent polishing and buffing (Imagine being able to complete a full buff and polish in half the time you spend now!)

#7. What about results?
A common problem with polishers and buffers is the dreaded SWIRL MARKS that are left behind. Pick a tool that, by design, eliminates existing swirl marks and holograms and does not leave new ones for the best results. After all that work, you want results that you can see. Go for a product that will give you visually stunning finish.
