[recommendations on orbital buffer/polisher]

[Greg Rich]

You want to buy one that actually rotates, not oscillates! Similar to a disc
sander, but low RPM (1000)Buy the B&D or Porter Cable, should cost around
$80-100 US, get a 6 or 7" bonnet, and some good polish-not the stuff at your
average auto parts store, you will have to go to a paint shop. I recommend the
Meguliars kit, a box with 6 or more bottles of waxes/polishes and it costs
$60US, it will last forever, enough to do at least 12 cars with badly faded
paint.
Happy waxing
Greg

I'm thinking about picking up an orbital polisher for use on my two
Audis...does anyone have experience with the Porter Cables, Black & Decker
or Sears units? Is a larger pad size good or bad? They range from 5-8" or
more...

The green metallic paint on the S6 needs a good detailing...to take out a
little oxidization and scratches...the pearl on the A6 is in much better
shape...but also needs a good general cleaning.

What's the best goop to use on paint in this condition?

Thoughts appreciated.
