What kind of polishing compound would I use with a buffer to buff out some imperfections in my paint? And where would I be able to find this compound? Also, would it be best to buff these spots out before or after I clay the whole car?

 

Buff after clay, 3M Swirl Mark Remover part number 39009 sold at NAPA

 

Would be good to know what color car he has before giving out part numbers. #39009 is for dark colored cars, #39109 for light colors. I got mine from autogeek.net.

 

I guess I should put a sticky about this as I have explained it before but here goes, the light and the dark are the exact same product formulation, the only difference is that 3M puts in a dark tint dye in the 39009 to reduce the nasty look of buffer sling in cracks and crevices of cars. So when I tell someone to use 39009 (which is the more common of the two and easier to find) it can be used on light or dark cars, does not matter.

 

Ah I see....just lookin out and trying to help. I hate that crap that's in the cracks between the fenders and such
