Has anyone here ever sanded and hand buffed a fresh paint job, instead of using a machine buffer?

That would take some serious time and elbo grease times money buy a buffer
also fresh paint?
who ****ed it up so quickly?
fair enough
I hadn't ever buffed before and didn't like the idea since I didn't want to mess it up. I watched a couple videos on Youtube, though and talked to a couple people to get some tips and tried my hand at it this morning with a borrowed buffer and wool pad.
It came out pretty good. I didn't get too close to the corners for concern with rubbing through, so I ended up hitting those by hand. It took about 4 1/2 hours to do the hood, both fenders, put the hood on and hand rub a small spot on the rear bumper.
Yes, it would have been a major bear to rub out by hand. That was a crazy idea.
Incidentally, it's fresh paint. I painted the parts I mentioned a week ago.
