    Default Non-Electric Buffing Agent

    I just got this little W&B in the mail the other day and was pleasantly surprised to see the good condition!

    Now I would like to begin my restoring on something that is pretty solid already. I don't really have the room in my garage for a bench grinder yet. I'm looking for a product that can bring back a bit of shine, non-mechanized. I ordered some MAAS last week. Just wondering if there was anything else good for getting water spots and such out?

    Cheers.

    Various grits of sandpaper, patience, and time -- that seems to be what a lot of what's used around here.

    Best non electric stuff I've used is Micromesh cushioned abrasives. Give a nice even finish compared to wetndri.
    They go up to 2 micron which they call 12000 grit - yeah different rating system again.
