dewalt 849-attaching pads to tool
hey guys,
this is going to seem very novice so please don't thrash me. i did search (maybe this is to novice of a question!) i bought an 849 it came with what appears to be a long nut threaded onto the tool it looks like this:
Optimum Double-Sided Rotary Adapter, double sided pad adapter, optimum center adapter
i purchased a gel coat labs kit-this one:
Gel Coat Labs Rotary Total Polishing Kit, boat polishing kit, remove oxidation, rotary polisher
I'm going to attempt to spruce up my faded gel coat on my boat. the problem is attachment. how do i attach the wool pads in the kit to the tool? i'm guessing i need some kind of a backing plate. any suggestions or direction? sorry for the simple questions, i assumed all i would need would be in the kit!
thanks
Andy

Re: dewalt 849-attaching pads to tool
hey Mike thanks for the quick reply, i have the wool pads that are provided in the gel coat labs kit. they are not threaded in the center like the one you pictured. they appear to be single sided pads. looks like i need a backing plate from the article that you linked?

Meguiars Solo Easy Buff W66 Rotary Backing Plate 6 Inch
something like the above? the meg backer is 6 inch would this be a better choice to marry up to the 7.5 inch lake county wool pads i have?
