Buffing "off the edge" means to always allow the pad to move away from the edge and not against it.

That's the best way to explain it. Never let the pad spin into the painted edge. Always allow the pad to spin away from the painted edge. For example, if you were buffing the drivers side front quarter panel/ hood edge, you would want to move from the front of the vehicle towards the driver door allowing the pad to spin away from or off of the painted edge.

are we talking here about the rotation of the pad and only ever hitting the edges of the panels with the 12 to 4 o-clock positions of the pad?
in other words, you're letting the pad's rotation come OFF the edge panel as opposed to rotating INTO the edge of the panel (it's spinning clockwise), as spinning INTO the edge of panel (the left side of the pad) generates more heat and works that surface down very quickly...
it's not so much a matter of how you're moving the buffer, but which part of the pad is hitting the edge as it spins... don't let the rotation of the pad allow the pad to be DRIVEN INTO the edge.
does this explain it?
it's late... i'm feeling illustrative... please correct me if I'm wrong...
