I know you get us noobs asking so many of the same questions but I would appreciate your help. I am finally taking the next step and purchasing a DA polisher. I have a 2007 G35 Infiniti ( paint is soft ) that has minor swirls/marring but has some water spots on the roof.I will also use it on my wife's BMW and my adult children's cars. I have always felt I would do more damage with a DA polisher then my hands.

Anyways......

I will buy a PC or UDM...at this point it is a coin flip.....concerned about the UDM reliability.

Pads....

Looking at the 5.5" LC CCS Smart pads
3 each 5.5" LC CCS orange smart pad
3 each 5.5" LC CCS white smart pad
3 each 5.5" LC CCS gray smart pad
My thinking is the 5.5" will give me a little better correction than the 6.5" pads, but not be as aggressive as the 4". I could still use the 5.5" pads for sealants,etc.

Polish....

Leaning toward the 1Z Paint Polish and 1Z Metallic Polish ( user friendly...tx.Accumilator)

Also....Meg.#83 and #80

I have been learning a great deal on this forum and appreciate any feedback.
