    Micro scratches on interior

    What can I use in order to take minor scratches which I much like swirl marks on the exterior paint but these are on the interior with the plastic coated wood-look materials? I do not have nor am I able to obtain a tiny 1 inch and powered polisher.

    Mother's Showtime and Griot's Spray Wax

    I used both of these today (sorry no pics). The Mother's has kind of a light ginger smell to it, and the Griot's has a definite banana smell. Thought I'd mention that since smell is important (?) for reasons beyond my comprehension. Anyway, I did the front half of the car with the Mother's...

    Which backing plate

    So many different brands of backing plates for the PC 7424 DA. Is there really much of a difference (other than HF) in backing plates. The 5" plates seem to run from ~$11 up to ~$25. Surely there's a difference, but, is the worth the jump to double the price to use as a weekend warrior? Just...
