Fully appreciate the concept of burnishing Woody, but my question is, what did the buffing do after polishing with micro mesh, my initial thought would have been that it would have been a step backward in that burnishing and polishing are effectively the same thing, to make shiny or glossy, and that brown paper would be detrimental to the finish achieved with micro mesh?
