I have a PorterCable, some fine Machine MicroPolish and Machine SuperWax from Adams.
Any sealer or other suggestions?
Thanks
In order to remove sanding marks completely, including all "tracers", you'll really need a high speed rotary, a wool cutting pad and some pretty potent compound. This is even when finishing with 2000 grit paper. Trying to pull them out with a D/A is an exercise in frustration at best.
