Buffer Or By Hand
I got a free buffer from Black and Decker should i use it or just wax it by hand and sell the cheap buffer? Do you think it might hurt my paint?

Congrats on the freebie.....definitely wont hurt the paint.
I would consider flipping it and getting a legit D/A that will allow you the capabilities of paint correction and LSP applications.
If you just need to wax and the suface has already been corrected and polished, waxing by hand will do.

You'll eventually need to polish (abrasive) the paint to remove scratches and an orbital like porter cable or Groit's will be necessary.

Re-gift the freebe and go get a good quality dual action polisher sold by one of our Forum vendors. The Corvette clearcoat is very hard and difficult to correct especially if you have allot of correction to do. Save yourself time and frustration and immedieately contact one of our vendors like AutoGeek and jump in.

If you want something to apply and remove wax only, keep it. If you want to clean and polish paint consider upgrading to a PC-XP or Griots Random Orbital. If you need help with polishes and pads, just consider Autogeek.
