Great looking collection, and your D50 will look great with the talent you have for polishing. Do you use a buffer or just elbow grease? Rick |

Do you just do a final buffing dry with the wheels or do you apply tripoli and/or jewelers rouge? |

you got a great deal on you d-50 too! you will love the way the kirby oval glows when it is on, it is soooo kool!, petek, i use a green compound first, red compound on any deep scratches, then i use a blue rouge with a softer wheel to take the very fine buffing scratches out. before i put it back together i wipe down with a very sooft rag (like t-shirt material) to get the access rouge off. it takes a little time but it is worth it!

I have the green and red rouges.. I'm just not quite sure how to do it properly. How much do you apply to the buffing wheels. I'm using a bench grinder with 8 inch pads. And do you go at it first with fine steel wool and metal polish |

The pic of your green dual sanitronic looks like it would be the perfect vacuum that the Oracle in "The Matrix" would have standing in her living room. I often wondered what type of vac she would have and where she would store it. Now, I know.In the Matrix . |
