Heh heh, well, you're not the only guy who's done that!

IMO most people oughta probably stop wetsanding at the "gee, I haven't really done *anything* much yet..." point. By the time you work out the sanding scratches you end up doing more correction anyhow.

On the small pads with a drill, I've never tried it. Just remember that it'll basically be an awkward version of a rotary. Keep the speeds *down low* and try to keep the pad flat. Plan to repolish by PC as holograms/etc. are kinda likely. I myself would stick with the PC/4" and just plan to get a Flex or a rotary at some point (and in the meantime, I'd try to just not worry about the remaining marring that the PC/4" doesn't get ).
