2000 grit wet sanding marks aren't really that hard to remove. You should be able to correct your finish using Menzerna Intensive Polish via PC 7336 on an orange Lake Country pad. You may want to follow up with Menzerna Final Polish on a white pad for a perfect finish.

If you want to get a high speed buffer but don't want to pay top dollar, go check out some Pawn shops, that is where I got mine for a fraction of the cost.

hey i think that i will check the pawn shops. it is not something that i would use but twice a year, you know? thanks for all the great info!
