Just used my new Griot's DA last night for the first time...part of the Wolfgang kit I got during the secret sale. Very pleased with the results...in fact, the car has never looked better...and it was easy!

But on the '57 Chevy, there are some areas where the standard size DA doesn't fit real well. I know I could just buy the matching Griot's 3" polisher, but is there a better / cheaper option?

Thanks in advance for the advice,

you could try a smaller backing plate and smaller pads. Thats what I do.
 
I'm sure you can use different backing plates and pads on the Griots, atleast I know you can use different ones on the PC 7424XP.
 
Yes I just took a look at the Griots DA and you can change the backing plate. You should hit up Nick and ask him what backing plates he recommends and which pads to go with those backing plates.
 
you can use any backing plate made for DA's they all use the same thread..lake Country, Megs, griots..I use lake Country BP on my griots
 
Just ordered LC 3.5 plate and a 6 pack of 4" spot buffs...that'll do the trick, I think! :)
 
indeed it should....good luck. Don't forget to post a pic of your upcoming project
