How to choose the right polisher for your detailing project

[Wills.WindowsAndWheels]

Very good post....I'm with you Pie about wanting more power lol. I bought a PC (the original) and really like it...but I guess I'm just a super perfectionist...The PC gets most paint thats in decent shape with swirls etc into ALMOST perfect condition...but you know how you put the light at JUST the right angle and look at it from JUST the right direction...and you see that hairline scratch or those almost invisable micromarring spots...well those drive me nuts lol.

So I'll probably be getting a Makita or Flex set up soon enough here...*sigh* maybe someday soon i'll actually be able to make enough money from this to even KEEP some of it instead of just reinvesting into more goodies lol...but this is sort of a 'must have' so...I think its worth the $

Really nice and super informative article!

btw I bought a DeWalt ROP! (originally a sander)

since this was all I could get my hands on, I kinda had to buy it!! (no other choices here!)

It comes with a permanently fixed 6" hook and loop backing plate

about the same OPMs as 7424XP

I've ordered 6.5 inch LC pads for it along with PO85rd

I hope it gives me the same results as 7424XP!

Any pointers Mike?
