    I had no idea something like this existed but it is something that I would have been into.

      They were great for light scratches and buffing out blemishes, it came with this solution spray and the wheel was basically just a buffer pad that wiped center out while rotating the disc. But anything beyond a light scratch was pretty much DOA.

        How much were you charging? How did you advertise? Word of mouth?

        I’m just curious. I sold warheads in elementary school. For a quarter a piece at first then down to nickels and dimes as people ran out of quarters. I think I just wanted to see how much I could sell by making different deals. As an adult I hate haggling though.

          $4-5/each, and yeah word of mouth. I pretty much did it for weed money, so I wasn’t really too crazy about getting that much business.

            That’s a good profit margin. By the time I was trying to get extra weed money, I was “extracting shareholder value” when I was working at Wendy’s. There was more opportunity working the drive thru.
