[QUOTE="Two Dogs, post: 1382851, member: 21114"] I have a few polishers. [ATTACH=full]127404[/ATTACH] Porter Cable 7345 (The sander version, add weight to make polisher). First attempt at machine polishing. Works fantastic across the board. [ATTACH=full]127405[/ATTACH] Cyclo. Another great machine. Works well in tight spaces due to smaller pads. It is not light, it will give you a workout on vertical panels. [ATTACH=full]127406[/ATTACH] Torq X. Purchased to return my Porter Cable to full time sander. Got tired of switching and began to wonder about cross contamination. Equal to the P/C and lighter. I like it. [ATTACH=full]127407[/ATTACH] And last but far from least, a rotary. Dewalt 849X. Soft start, well balanced, runs 4" to 9" pads, pretty much capable of anything. I have had it about a year and still don't trust myself on top end vehicles. I have done 10-12 very rough cars for friends to practice. Haven't burnt any paint, gone through clear coat, etc. I'm just about ready to move up in vehicles. This is a beast, it will compound and polish twice as fast (maybe more) than a random orbit. Done wrong it will hologram, burn paint, go through clear coat. Get something to practice on. My friends have the shiniest hoopties in the city. [/QUOTE]
