turnnburn,
Hop over to the RC Pattern Universe forum and open the Pattern thread. Scroll to the "Painted Wing, stabs....." thread for a truly excellent tutorial on painting RC models. Specific info on buffers/polishers can be found on Page 10/Post 256 and on Page 14/Post 341. There are links to suppliers of buffers/polishers and their use. Jeremy of LGM Graphics also posted a tutorial on painting jets which may be searched ( and hopefully found) on this RC Jets Forum. Good luck on all this.
Rgds,
Art ARRO
