Ahhh, thats why. You're buffing very small pieces, not large parts. Even still, 12 inch wheels won't do you any good with your grinder. Invest in a better buffer. Somehting could be had to around $100 or so.

You arent looking for HP, you want higher amps. Higher amps are what are going to allow you to put pressure on the wheel without bogging.
