What buffer did you use? At what speed? Pads?

dam...is it a rotary? If so, I wouldn't touch that thing if your new to it. Hope everything works out for you. People swear by the Porter Cable, and it is very user friendly.

Also a good idea is to practice using it on another "less important" vehicle. I actually still have the stock T/A hood from my 99 and I'm going to practice on it when I get the PC setup just to make sure I can do it right.
