I am wondering what everyone uses to do the pilars. All I have at my disposal is a flex 3401and a pc. The flex seems way to big to be using there. The pads end up over the windows. I do have 4" pads for the pc. But just does not get the job done. Is my only option getting a rotary and small 2" or 3" pads?
 
I also own a flex 3401 and a PC type machine - it is DAS6 Pro re-branded and sold in South Africa as 'Shield' DA.

I have it fitted with a 3.5" BP and use the 4" pads for these areas. By taping off the edges of the pillars it allows you to use the 4" pad without worrying about a) striking through the edges of the paint or b) accidentally running over trim

Sure, a Flex PE8 with 1", 2" and 3" pads would be ideal, but we don't all have one laying around....

I have even used the 3401 with 5" pads on these areas, but only after ensuring everything was properly taped up.
