buffing/scratch removing techniques?

[treveiger]

My dad just sold his 04 GMC truck that was a charcoal color, we had scratches left and right in it from all the years of using it as a work truck and we wanted to buff it(first time ever doing it)before we put it up for sale so i grabbed our single speed grinder and put a buff pad on it and used 3M fine scratch buffing compound and did little sections at a time and the scratches that werent through the clear coat came out and put some polish and wax on it and the truck looks great! I really didnt want to sell it after that. That was my first time doing it and now im not afraid to burn the paint if i can do it anybody can.
