    More tools in my bag?

    I am considering an other DA/or Rotary buffer.
    At the moment i have a Flex DA, Dewalt Rotary, Porta Cable and Griots 3 inch DA.
    I have been detailing for over 25 years as a hobby, i have been know to detail the neighborhood's cars in the past.
    I find that i can put a better shine with a rotary than a Da. I have used rotarys for years.
    They are getting heavy for me to work on the side panels.

    I would like to find a small rotary, for the side panels, as my back sometimes gets tired.
    I know Flex has one, but the price point is a bit high for me at the moment.
    I am looking at the Dewalt 849X for erganomics.

    Any suggestions ??

    Re: More tools in my bag?

    Have you thought about the Rupes at all? They are very light easy to use and offer great correction and are great with MF cutting pads.

    Now that Meg's has released the Xtra cutting pads this even offers more cut to the Rupes and any other DA on the market.
