    Using a 1" sanding pad on a drill imo is not safe. Using the pencil method with high grit paper is a better way. I've used this method for years and it's the best method I've found for removing the least amount of clear coat around a chip.

    Oh yeah I wasn't going to use that crazy drill thing. Out of the question. I wanted this kit because it's got that nice handheld thing included.

    Using the pencil method is more precise then using a 1" pad. I use a 1" Nano pad for finish polishing after wet sanding. Again, this method is for small rock chips..anything bigger, I would use a sanding block.
