Hello Dave and everyone else,
I've just joined today as I'm new to detailing and looking for advice.
I'm Mark and from the UK but now in Palmerston North, New Zealand.
As I'm a novice it seems best for me to start with a Porter-Cable and not a rotary. Where do I get one from in NZ? Import like everyone around the world? Is there an alternative to PC?
What do you use Dave?
I looked at waxit.com.au and they suggest a Bosch 400AEX sander but is this too many rpm? I phoned and asked
Meguiars and they didn't know about machine polishers except to say Rupes are good. But thats a rotary.
Next is the products,
Meguiars is available but I assume expensive for the results. A Meguiars retailer suggested 3M products. I would like to try Poorboys but that would require importing.
Dave, what and where can you suggest I source my start up equipment. I only want to remove swirls and holograms on my cars and if I get good enough go into business doing it. I'm prepared for investment as I have to start somewhere and no point in buying rubbish from the start.
So, do I import or is there a world outside Repco/Supercheap as thats for the retail market and they can't help in Palmy for what I want to do.
thanks in advance,
Mark
