I detail sports cars as a personal side business and if it were me I would use the 3 m perfect it kit with a small D/A
Thanks.
I can see the practicality of the kit for a pro like you. I'm just looking for some type of buffer that can get onto the body surfaces where the lettering is. I guess it's just called Flannel & Fingers, a product almost all of us have.
I have used Q-tips for years, especially for wax removal. Griots sells some small soft brushes too.
Thanks.
One good thing about using a clear spray wax is that there's no visible wax residue left, as opposed to a paste. I like Turtle wax, but I always seem to miss some spots in getting it off and buffed.
I also have an ultra soft brush in case I do manage to leave residue. I use a good sealer in the little spaces so I do not have to go over them as much.. all hand work, would not trust powered machine there
Check the woman’s makeup section of your local drug store or supermarket. A lot of small brushes, cotton *****, and wedge sponges. I use these to apply various liquids and powders to my model train freight cars which have smaller spots than between the Vette letters. They work great.

I use "real bristle" paint brushes, the ones with light colored bristles. Get the inexpensive, wooden handle ones. Wrap the metal part in duct tape and cut the bristles down some to add stiffness. Buy several sizes because they are cheap and leave the bristles longer on a couple to use on the interior vents and crevices. Works great with interior dressing. I usually have a wider one in my wash bucket to wash around letters, emblems, and body seams. Chip.
