    Dave you are fortunate that you make a living at what you like doing.

    I would also offer that I agree with Dave go for the flex if you have the money.

    Also see if there is a member in your area that you could meet and see if they would be willing to let you try a da. Could be an option.

    Great reply Ed!!!

    You know I was just pulling your leg and wouldn't have said it if I didn't like you and think you have a great sense of humor.

    Dave I took no offense. I wanted to give a good response that either go big or not at all. I am an Enthusiast. I find detailing very relaxing and is a way that helps relieve stress from my full time job. I am always going to Mechanicsburg and one day I am going to go to stop by and meet you. I enjoy reading your post as well as BobbyG who I have met at a PoorBoys detailing event.

    Unfortunately I was unable to go to your detailing event last year I am sure we would have gotten along sharing stories and having a cold one. If you have one this year I'm there

    I recommend you head over to one of the Meguiar's Thursday Night Garages. Head over to Meguiar's online and sign up. You will learn a lot there.

    If you like to tinker, there are several threads on the Harbor Freight DA( item#69924 ). There are easy to do upgrades and videos on youtube to help. You can look at all the HF deals, just google harbor freight slickdeals. With a 20% off coupon, which is easy to get, the price today is $56. Their 6" palm polisher is good for removing wax when you don't want to use the DA. It is item#90219 and is $18. 2 polishers for less than $75. Not much $$ to throw away if you decide you are no longer interested. I have had mine for 2 years with all the mods and it works perfectly.
