Dry Buffing<\/strong><\/h3><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Use case:<\/strong> Often used for light polishing, cleaning, or finishing surfaces like car paint, floors, or countertops.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Advantages:<\/strong> Prevents water streaks and is easier to manage in terms of cleanup.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Important note:<\/strong> Ensure the pad is clean and free of debris to avoid scratches.<\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Damp Buffing<\/strong><\/h3><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Use case:<\/strong> Useful for more intense polishing or when working with polishing compounds, as the dampness helps to spread the product evenly and prevents overheating.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Advantages:<\/strong> Reduces friction and minimizes heat buildup, especially on delicate surfaces like car paint.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>How to dampen:<\/strong> The pad should be slightly damp, not soaking wet, to avoid splattering polish or water everywhere.<\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3.
