    Buffing does not cause fading. It can cause thinning, burn marks, stripping if done incorrectly. Wear will cause fading. that is why, you should apply protection (waxes, sealants) after buffing or polishing.
    Regarding topcoat, i guess what he means is applying clear coat. Clear coat is paint. You can't apply clear coat after buffing. You need to sand it down first.

    buffing is for not so old vehicle 2 to 3 year old with minor scratch...to bring back the luster of the vehicle.. top coat? no way! as BlackMagic says you need to sand it down 1st para kumapit yung topcoat... i don't know if will work on top coat alone.. maybe 1coat of paint again and top coat...parang naging hilamos na ah...

    ah ok, now i understand...so mga idol it depends po pla sa workmanship ng paintshop, kung magiging pulido at hindi magiging fade ang paint kalaunan.sabi rin po kc sa akin ng napagtanungan kong paintshop, it depends din sa paint na already exist sa auto ko kung tatagal ang output ng buff..hindi kc sila ang unang tumira ng paint sa auto..actually second hand ko na sya nung naacquired ko sya.kaya wla silang assurance kung tatagal ang output ng buff nila.maari po ba ito?

    just remember to do maintenance after buffing such as regular cleaning, waxing. Protect the output you achieve with buffing.

    basically nakakafade talaga ng paint ang buffing using RUBBING Compound... kasi Rubbing compound is a MICRO SANDER that can remove any contaminants attached to your top coat.. pero pag nasobrahan pati top coat mo tanggal... use only little amounts and apply softly too much pressure on application sure na masisira paint mo..

    Basta marunong ang mag ba-buff, NO. Hindi po sya nakaka fade. Unless manipis na ang top coat mo. After buffing e hindi mo sya pwede ipa top coat. Mag chi-chip din yun. Parang kaliskis ng isda. Before we apply Topcoat or paints sa car e nililiha muna para kumapit ang ia-apply natin. Hindi sya kakapit pag madulas na.

    Dalawang klase ang pwede gamitin pag buff. Rubbing compound at Polishing Compound. Sa Rubbing Compound medyo malaki ang kain nya. Unlike sa Polishing Compound na talagang polish lang sya.

nakakafade ba ng paint ang "buffing"?
