So I wanted to try buffing out the paint on my 995 to see what would happen and since Leon talked about it what the hell right? Not having a buffer I had to come up with a plan so I pondered for a bit and came up with something. My wife being the dear that she is purchased me an item to help me with my skin but always complained that I never used it. Well not anymore, this little CVS skin buffer works great on saws! Notice the before and after pictures.        |

The saw looks great. What kind of buffing compound did you use? I actually use white diamond metal polish to buff my paint and have great results

I have no idea what brand it was because I was given a small sample by a friend.
I used a squirt of WD-40 too to keep it from drying too quick and adding a sheen.

I wonder if CVS has any other Homelite special tools for restoration purposes?

I don't know, but if I were a lesser man I'd think you were making fun of me🤔

Nicely done, that looks good!
I use my dremel & felt pads with 3 stages of Meguiar's professional liquid compounds. IT takes a while and makes a real mess, but the results are quite good.
