I have one of them too. First I clean with a NYLON non-scratch scouring pad, and washing up liquid and rinse off. Next I apply a thin film of thick bleach with a soft pad, leave five minutes, rinse, and dry, you get a lovely finish...(Answered by tizzy) |

If you buff a tile floor and spray water on it before you buff it does it hurt the floor or buffer or either?
I have heard if you spray buff or have a mixture of water and wax and spray it on that it will make the wax build up and be uneven but i want to know with just straight water if it will do anything harmful to the wax. Is it more aggressive with water and take off too much wax. I am only supposed to strip and wax once a year so will it eventually wear down to bare tile before the year is up? I buff 5 nights a week on this floor. Also i use a battery opperated ... (Asked by christopher_lee_thomas) |

Spray buffing uses a polishing compound to help put a shine on the wax floor a bit quicker, than dry buffing... In my experience, you end up taking the wax off a bit faster with this method.
Using just water will only muck up your buffer pads, and will not help get the shine you need on the wax.
Buffing works on two principles... polishing, and heat. Water actually acts a lubricant, rather than a polish, thus, defeating the purpose.
Buffing 5 nights a week, you ARE going to need to add a coat of wax every now and then... how often ...(Answered by thewrangler_sw) |

How can I buff scratches out of my kitchen counter?
Hey guys, I just had a dumb moment and I forgot to use a cutting board. Now there are several scratches from the knife I used to chop up some celery on my kitchen counter. I really need to know if there is a type of buffing kit I could use. Something with a special rag and some polishing solution for kitchen counters maybe? Has anyone had this problem before? I want to take care of it before my room mate gets back next week, or at least before I move out in three weeks. ... (Asked by oldladymallarsky) |

knowing what material your countertop is made of will make the difference. Marble? A non-grit buffing compound will work; Corian? same as above, but you have to watch how hard you buff, you can remove the sheen. Laminated? If your cuts are deep, you can use a dye material to recolor them back to the original, however, the substrata material is a non porous material so you will have to apply a genererous amount and buff it down to level. Certain paint companies also make a self leveling two part epoxy paint that can be ...(Answered by gonnawon) |

hmmm. stainless steel is notoriously hard to maintain - and it rusts and stains into the bargain. you could try using .0000 steel wool on it , or maybe you might try a light steel wire brush - though i'd use a VERY light touch. (but only if the stainless has a brushed finish)! if it has a polished finished, you're actually better off - that can be buffed out with a power buffer and some rubbing compound. i would contact a body shop and ask them for tips - they probably know the most about working with metal ...(Answered by bombhead) |
