Well my body guy is gone forever evidently and I need to buff my bus. It has that orange peel thing but the paint is ok. What kind of tool(s) do I need, where do I buy them also what buffing compounds?

My front seats are in being re-upholstered and I have new seat stand mats and seat surrounds. Slowly but surely. I love my bus and can't wait to get it out this spring!

I would love to offer a bunch of helpful and on-point advice, but I know nothing about buffing paint. That should be plainly evident by the very dull finish on all of my cars.

Hah! That goes without saying, otherwise I'd just have called you like I usually do! Laughing

I was going to get my Bus buffed locally but the guy wanted me to know what sort of paint our beloved body man, Gerald, used. Would you happen to have any idea?
I am excited to see the new bus by the way.
