Buffing fullerplast ?

Someone once told me that you can buff out fuller- plast to a satin or high gloss finish. I'm think that they said to use car wax. Is anyone familiar with doing this?
Thanks,
Darren

I spray with Krystal, which is a catalyzed varnish finish very similar to Fullerplast. It will buff out well to a gloss finish.
I have a buffing wheel set up though, so haven't tried it by hand. Not sure how much success you would have with that.
A flat finish buffed to a gloss won't be quite as hard, nor quite as glossy as if you used a true gloss finish to start with though.

I buff by hand my Fullerplast with powdered Pumice or Rottenstone with a Wet cotton cloth will do the job

Get yourself a can of Dupont polishing compound at your auto parts store. If the finish is really rough use buffing compound first.

I'm not familiar with Crystal? Is it a two part varnish? A website where I could look up it's properties?
