    Electric Wet Sander

    I currently use the Rupes Pneumatic Sander and the Griots Garage 3" polisher as my wet sanders. I have decided to go all electric. I am concerned that the Duetto cuts too fast and hard after reading Mike's demonstration post. I am not afraid to spend some money. Recommendations please?

    I think the PC 7424 with appropriate backing plates and paper should serve your purpose.

    I used my PC with a 6" backing plate and a Meguiar's interface pad. Then whatever 6" sanding discs I needed.

    Here's a video of me sanding with a PC. I've done it on paint as well.

    Re: Electric Wet Sander

    Here's a car that we machine sanded back around the year 2008 using the PC with Abralon discs....

    Knock out painted roofs first, then tackle the rest of the car...


    1951 DeSoto - on Flickr





    ]1952 DeSoto - Roof has been sanded, cut, polished and waxed and is now protected with a soft flannel sheet




    This DeSoto is similar to the one Richy Cunninham's Dad drove on the TV show "Happy Days".
