Re: Best kit for my needs?

Is it worth getting the HD PC. I noticed its a option in many of the kits? Any benefits that anybody knows of. besides the longer cord?

Re: Best kit for my needs?

My take on it (as another "not new to detailing, new to the high end products") is that even within this site, there is a staggering array of options you can choose.

Go with the kit that best suits your needs and gives you the best feeling of value for your dollar.

I really don't think you'll go wrong with any of them. Try them out, then come back over time and order other products to try for comparison, or keep going with your original kit if you're satisfied with your results.

HD PC is purely personal taste ... I use original with extension cord.

Re: Best kit for my needs?

I just got the Poorboys kit last week. I ordered extra orange and white pads in the 5.5in size. I have spent the last couple days polishing a black miata. I had scratches and swirls also. The SSR 2.5 and orange pad got rid of the swirls and most of the scratches. Still working on a few of them. I ordered the yellow 5.5 pads on the 24th It seems like I have gotten all the scratches that I can with the orange pads. Gonna seal it with Duragloss 601 followed by their 105.
