from the RPMs that you describe it sounds like a regular buffer. I run between 1200-1400 rpm using a foam pad from 3M, if they are very light surface scratches us a gloss formula, and for the deeper go to 3M diamond cut to medium cut then to heavy cut for the really really deep scratches. like everyone said previously stay away or go really light on edges because that is where paint/ clear coat is going to be the thinnest. remember after buffing you need to apply a coat of wax.
from my own experiance(I work at a honda dealership in recon) go very light on plastic bumper covers because they heat up a lot quicker therefor burn or fold the paint over.
personally I find that the 3m products seem to give the best results compared to the other products that I have triedLast edited by vt1992s10; 11-29-2005 at 02:12 PM.
