That's not true. They were manufactured to be used on your paint at any time.

NO.

Get online and get yourself a Porter-Cable 7424XP. Then take a look at my sticky on how to remove paint damage and learn how to use that machine so that you can effectively repair your paint. Getting the machine is the first key. Learning a proper technique with that machine is the second key. That crap of a machine they sell at Harbor Freight is a piece of junk, as most stuff sold by Harbor Freight. You want a quality machine and quality pads to go with a quality compound and polish that you chose to use.
