Hi Everyone, I am in the middle of Window Hell.  I decided to polish my windows by hand because I am afraid of using a bench buffer to polish them up. The thought of catching an edge and shooting a rare part across the room doesn't give me warm fuzzies. Hence going with hand polishing. For the brows, I wanted to screw them into a piece of plywood and then use a machine to polish then clamp the plywood to a workbench. I figured that might be easier and faster. I tried a small kit I bought at Home Depot to use on my drill, but it didn't work all that well. Maybe it was my drill speed or the cheap cloth wheel. So, I was wondering if there is a small mechanical buffer I could use to polish the brows that anyone can recommend. I don't want to buy a big heavy one that they use on semi Wheels or the sides of Airstreams. Those beasts are heavy and I had recent back surgery that limits my strength. Thoughts? Thank you, Rod

I tried a buffer and I wasn’t happy. It’s hard to get in the nooks and crannies. Ultimately I also decided doing it by hand is the way to go. Polishing takes forever, doesn’t it?
