buffing cream why do they teach you to use that? seems like a waste of time and money to me, why cant they teach students how to go down with grits when finishing and then use a gloss block or board with good old elbow grease, :hug:

That's how I learned, and I completed my course a couple of months ago

i learned to use a buffing paste at college as well but that was (ahem) a while ago. I dont think ive ever used it since. I think glossing blocks and buffers have progressed a lot since then so im not sure there is much need for the paste anymore. Get a decent buffer and a bit of elbow grease, should do the job brilliantly!

Why are they still teaching students these methods if the industry has progressed so much? surely the tutor should be wanting to teach students the most versatile methods for bringing the enhancment to a high shine i.e by either using a high gloss top coat after refining or glossing block.

Really does seem unnecessary and long winded process using buffing cream not to mention cost involved. :irked:
