Buffing polishing advise needed

Were you planning on sanding and buffing or just buffing? If you're color sanding you should do it as soon as possible, the more it cures the more difficult it is. A good variable speed buffer, I have a Dewalt, looks like a big grinder not one of those little 2 handed deals. I like to use a single stage system that uses a single compound with 3 different pads. You can use systems that have a different compound and different pad for each stage but you have to clean more between steps to make sure you have all of the more aggresive compound off the surface before going to the next step. I use Norton's Liquid Ice, but there's other good ones out there, System One I think is another. Be really careful on edges and peaks, tape them if you're sanding, you can burn through quite easily. You can buff through as well if you're not careful.
