Go ahead and sand out a few scratches, then you will understand the buffer. It was only like $20 at Home Depot just gotta make sure its the random directional one.

How are you going to handle what appears your plumbing is against your bracing? Do you think cutting it will affect the integrity of the stand?

Great pics keep them coming
I think I will try the buffer but I want to try it by hand first.

The brace just touches the plumbing going through that section. It is a lot tighter than I wanted so it made it harder to work on it but it all does fit. Sometimes I wish that I went with the in-the-wall design so I would have a lot more room for this.
