Hello,

Im a complete newbie and have heard alot of people talk about buffing. What exactly is that, someone said somewhere, "is this pad used for waxing or buffing?" it completely threw me off. they sell buffing pads, buffing towels, what exactly is buffing??



Thanks in advance

Buffing is a very general term and with a lot of loose definitions. Buffing can refer to using an machine buffer to polish or wax paint, and it can also refer to the process of taking of residue of a product. When the person said that commend, they were probably talking about the aggressiveness of the pad in relation to its function- buffing as in polishing paint, or waxing paint.
 
Hi kler.. I had the same question and have come to the conclusion that it means "everything". Except maybe driving.

Hey Jim, Welcome!:wavey . I know a lot of the terms here get a bit overwhelming at first but I'll recomend to you what I did when I first came here. Read, Read, and then Read some more. Also have you downloaded The Autopia Guide to Deatailing? It's made by one of the creators of this site. It's free and has a lot of info. Once you download it all you have to do is follow the free regestration and it unlocks all the chapters. Here's a link. Autopia Guide to Detailing
