    I have that same one....it's actually my dad's. I plan on getting a PC within the next month. I've used that buffer and it seems like I can get the same results by hand.....do you guys think it's worth it to get the PC? I really want one. Or maybe I'm not working in the product enough?

    That thing is a toy compared to a PC. I used something like that for many years and its OK to apply cleaner waxes but for real detailing, you need to step up to a real machine. Orbital buffers like that one simply do not generate the torque and speed needed to get top results. Once you experience a PC, you won't use that old buffer again. If you want one of your own, LMK and I'll send you my old Craftsman with a few buffer bonnets for the cost of shipping only.

    Eh, I don't really use that thing anyways. My dad probably hasn't used it in years so it's available to me whenever I want. I'm just going to get the PC from coastaltool.com.

    Thanks!

    Can someone translate 2400 random orbits per...wait...minute. As in 60 per second. Hmm. Well, can someone translate that into a PC's setting number.
    I can't believe I bought another black car.
