Jeep Detail

[rescuenut10]

Finally got to do some detailing today. My Mother-in-Law had a oops with her 2012 Jeep Compass and a pole in a parking. There was heavy paint transfer and scuffing on the bumper and quarter panel.
I used my Flex v603 buffer and Mothers Prof. Grade heavy duty compound with a 3M white waffle pad to remove the heavy transfer and the larger scuffs. I followed up with Mothers Prof. Grade Foam pad polish with a 3M gray waffle pad to remove any swirls and very slight scuffs on the left read door. I need to get some touch up paint to fix a chip on the quarter and a small gouge on the bumper.

wow.....really...., how many passes would you say to achieve those results? Can I do this kinda stuff with my porter cable?

I worked the area very gingerly with the compound, I was afraid of buffing thru on the corner, with that said it might have been 20 -25 passes removing the sling and hazed compound at 5,10 and 15. I'm not sure about using the Porter Cable.
