Gee guys, I guess you got me. Looks like my career of masquerading as a buffing and polishing guy and getting to indulge in the unparalleled joy of giving out technical service help to random strangers on the internet is finally over.

That's silly, dude. Just because his advice conflicts with yours, and I asked him to stick around in case he really does have 30 years in, is no reason to get in a huff. Actually you were quoting Caswell...and frankly, although our gracious hosts provide a great service, they simply aren't the last word on polishing. Nobody is, I suspect.
You know as well as I do that nobody's (and I do mean nobody's) advice in here is set in stone, and what works for one will, for no apparent reason, not work for all. I have a day job I've been doing for almost 40 years - I can do it in my sleep now, and I can tell anybody all the tips and tricks they'd never think of, just because I've been around long enough to see it all.
Sorry you took offense. I certainly value your research and contributions, but one of the few things I've come to know for sure is that there really is no substitute for experience. If chromepl8ter has 30 years in, he'll jump in and clear some things up for us. If he doesn't, well...
Anyhow, life's too short. No offense was intended. Please accept my apologies for giving a wrong impression.
