For sure...

But come to think of it, not too sure I would want my tips too shiny and the car has no chrome/brightwork on it.

I may have to look for a nice black tip option when the time comes...

Pretty good kit! 6 different polisher/buffer heads

Well worth the money.



Quality seems fine but I wouldn't abuse these. They are made of cotton maybe? Not quite sure.
