Finally Made The Purchase...

I have been using an old Sears rotary buffer and wool pads way to long. I finally decided to purchase a new rotary. Here is my last order...

I also ordered a couple of other pads to replace a few worn ones for my PC. I think the Makita will save me some time and help me achive a new level of paint correction. All my clients are already really impressed with what I do, but I know I can achieve better results in a shorter amount of time.

Any suggestions for a first time user of the Makita?

BTW, I love free shipping.

OH, I have been addicted since I was sixteen and needed to make my '83 F-150 look better.:awesome:

I have just been utilizing outdated tools. Not any more. I have been professionally detailing for 2 years now, though.

I'll get some as soon as I do a vehicle.

You know I hate to say it but you really should not open those pads so you can send them back and get the edge2000, I once used all lake country pads, and have since switched to edge2000... I will never go back...

I dunno. I have tried the edge pads on the PC and to me, they don't feel better nor do they really save me time. I mostly use my LC pads. Maybe the rotary will be different. I might want to use some edge pads since they are always centered. I'll order some here soon. I believe I will like the LC pads though.

Thanks for the comments and suggestions though. Keep them coming.
