i dont know much about a $50dollar paint job, but it all depends on how many coats of clear you put on and what grit sand paper you used as well.

I put 3 to 4 coats of clear on and then sand it with 1500 grit. Start with 3M perfect-it buffing compound with a wool buffing pad, after that follow it up with a waffle pad...Wipe the compund off then use a 3M polishing pad with there 3M polishing glaze.

You will have over $50 in buffing supplies, let alone with buying a buffer it self.
