Just for kicks, I'm getting some new terry cloths and I'm going to try buffing using spirits. One kind for the buffer and one kind for the operator
I'll post my results at a later date.





Errrmm... please ensure that your home owner insurance and car insurance are paid up...

I am getting this dark vision of the vapors from your mineral spirit soaked rag igniting from the sparks being generated by your buffer.

You have to remember that the electric engine in a buffer is not specifically designed to be operating around combustible vapors

In fact some of the electric paint sprayers that 'were' on the market had to be re-called, discontinued or re-engineered because they were catching on fire when a highly combustible liquid was used in them...

Just thought I would offer that warning...
