how i got into buffing ? started with a hurst shifter handle took me hours to do
then i went to an alternator housing took me even longer then i did an intake manifold on a bb chev took forever to finish that one and then i got hooked and the word went around and started to get jobs coming in.and close to 20 years later i m still here doing it .

just compare it to the one you did before that one and see if you improved , if you did you are on the right track ,if not get another part and try again .
