I got that one for a buddy of mine. Was that one single drill, stacked leverage?

Well, it's not.

Rough Buff is generally speaking a rubbing compund-type of liquid. It will smooth out that 220 grit CONSIDERABLY. The final finish is closer to 800-1000 grit and looks half way between a polish and a matte finish.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway...

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought visually 220 sounded extreme, but I figured the polish brought it up. Thanks guys!
