Aqua Buff? - 07-05-2007, 02:38 PM

Hey guys, couple quick questions.

1> Ever use aqua buff compound, and if you have, how does it do ( I currently use buff magic, finesse, etc.)

2> what is the easiest way to buff out an area too close for comfort with the buffing wheel? Any tricks of the trade?

3> And finally what is the best way to bring in new jobs when an area is saturated with low ballers and fly by nights?

I'll answer two and three only

The best way to get into tight areas is by hand....you don't want to run the risk of hitting that car and running the finish or messing up your pads.

You could offer some intro pricing that is in the same area as the competitors, but its real hard to get that pricing back up once you have done that....word of mouth is about the best way to promo your business.....takes time but its the best and most solid way of building it up
