I popped open the engine cover and found about a 1/2 acre of central Oklahoma dust in there. Blew out the filter and I'm going to see what the locals offer for a replacement.

I got a full set of buffer pads from Chemical Guys on Amazon. Good stuff, it made my first DIY car paint job actually look good.
