Default cordless buffer..

hey guys,

i'm new to detailing. my car is parked way far from my building, so i'll need a good cordless buffer (rechargable or works on batteries). what do you recommend and where can i find it? bare in mind, i don't live in the U.S, so i'll have it ordered by the net.

how can i keep my leather seats matt as they are? i wanna take care of them, and protect them. but no way i want the shinny look on those seats.

thnx

You could use products that don't need buffers for application or removal. Zaino, NXT, etc. are spray/wipe on-wipe off and have no need for machine application or removal.

If you are looking to fully polish your car with a buffer and take out scratches and swirls, i don't think a battery buffer would cut it. it wouldn't move fast enough. If you are just doing simple wax on and wax off, do what Dave said above.

For the seats, i use Lexol two step cleaner and conditioner. It is two bottles. It works great and doesn't leave the seats shiny at ALL. Hope that helps a bit. PM me if you need anymore help.

I agree with SuperBlack350z I have yet to hear of any battery powered polisher that would have significant cutting power. If anyone finds one I'd love to hear more about such a buffer.
