I always like to try different detailing related stuff out. I HAD one (Adam's SK mini). The front grip protruded way too much and you couldn't get into tight spots. I still have these 3 though.

That's not an Adams, it's a Harbor Freight. The Adams's looks totally differant.

Thanks E2K. Yes, "had" is the operative word.

I have a porter cable that I have a 3” backing plate on and tbh I really don’t enjoy using it.

Never used a nicer set up for 3” pads, but I’m kind of at the point where I think it would make more sense to go forced rotation and have a 1” machine like the ibrid for the ridiculously small spaces.

I know a 3401 or Mille can cover a ton of ground, and I’d have to imagine whatever those machines couldn’t handle would be small enough to almost require a nano tool of some kind.

A lot of coin to part with though, which is why I haven’t bothered to try and unload my polishers and start down that path. Hard to justify the expense for a hobbyist, lol.

Same here on the PC with the 3" pads.

There are parts of the Ram, and more importantly the wife's Wrangler where it is a Godsend.

That being said, there are also many little spots where I know a 1" would work.

But like you stated, the expense for a hobbyist isn't there IMO.
