I just bought a 3 step wax system from Mothers and orbital buffer (polishing machine ). I never did this before so I need help. Can I use buffer in all three steps 1. pre-wax cleaner 2. Sealer and glaze 3. wax? Does it damage my paint or something? What is the best way to do it?
Thanks

If you go to their website it tells you how you are supposed to apply it

OK, you basically start with the paint cleaner, then do the sealer/glaze, then the final wax. Yes you can use the buffer for the paint cleaner and sealer/glaze, but I'd do the waxing by hand. Actually, if it were me, I'd probably do the cleaner with the buffer, and the other two by hand, but that's me. You might want to pick up a clay kit too and do that before starting on any of those 3 steps. None of these products will damage your paint, however you can do damage if you use the buffer wrong, i.e. swirls.

So, 1) Apply the cleaner and wipe. Repeat as many times as you feel necessary per panel.
2) Apply one or, at most, 2 coats of the Sealer/Glaze, then buff.
3)Apply one coat of the wax, then buff.
4) Enjoy the shine, because after all that work, it probably won't last longer than a month or two at the most and you'll have to do most of this again for the best shine.
