1) Meguires 105 with orange pad with portal cable at 3 speed.
2) MeGuire’s 205 with white pad with portal cable at 6 speed to polish and remove swirls from 105.
3) Chemical guys Jetseal to seal up the polished finish with hand application wait 20 minutes before buffing off.
4) chemical guys black light with black pad with portal cable a 1 speed and let dry to haze about 20 minutes.
5) finally Wolfgang sealant with blue pad at one speed with portal cable. Let sit for 20 minutes buff to a brilliant shine.
total time about 6 hours.

I want to learn how to buff but am worried I’ll just ruin the paint. Are you self taught?
