Spray Detailing causes scratches! Hey guys, i spray wax my car a lot, and it seems like its left a lot of scratches in the paint. I havent really ever waxed with a buffer since i got the car, is tht how everyone usually waxes there car? My dad has just a cheaper buffer, you dont need like an insanely fast one do u? And if i spend a lot of time buffing with wax, will those scratches, swirls come out, or should i use 3mm polish tht i have?
Use micro fiber towels. Your going have to use a 3 step system to get rid of the scratches. Mothers 3 step system works great. And try to use a porter cable buffer or a orbital buffer. But stop using what ever your using. 
I pickup dirt on my car with a microfiber duster dampened with quick detailer then go over it with some ultimate quick detailer and a microfiber cloth. Haven't caused any more scratches that weren't already on there using this method.

sry guys, i forgot to add i ALWAYS use microfiber towels, and im wondering if im rubbing too hard or something. I was also wondering, wut do most people use when buffing their car, a towel, or buffer? Is it even worth buffing ur car with a $30 buffer, or should i buy an expensive one?

Verdad Gallardo I use the P&C and am glad I bought it. It took out some major scratches on my b/f's Camaro and did wonders on my DD. I also had a few scratches on my car that have been there since I bought it that it took out. Dont waste your money on the $30 ones you can get at Advanced. I've since made some money on the side detailing other's cars with the P&C 
Also you wont get every scratch out with the P&C but you can get out a good portion of them. Check out Autogeek.net they have a lot of helpful info there on the random orbitals

your spray wax isnt making scratches. You are, when you either are washing it, drying it or waxing it. a $30 buffer wont do a damn thing but save you a little time when ou do a hand wax. If you want to remove defects, you need a real deal buffer
