10" Polisher

Ok, guys, been a while since my last post, so let me take a deep breath and...

I have a 10" polisher from Wal-Mart (I know what you guys thinking ) Anyways, I test it for the first time this weekend on my Corolla with a pad bought on AutoZone... Well, I used it with Rightlook's Polish (the one before their new formulation, pink color like the Cherry Wax) and Cherry wax. Have to admit that the change was huge in matter of swirls left on it! I was amazed!!! But I want a pad(s) that will do a better job at reducing scratches rather than adding to it. Can you guys, Guru Masters of Auto Detailing help me here?

I do not have the money for a PC, but want something to start off and then later upgrade to the PC.

Thanks in advance!

Joey

Try GEM Industry pads. I am not sure if they will fit on anything other than a GEM though.

Cool

Meguiars has both foam and microfiber bonnets for 10" buffers.

SM Arnold also makes a variety of bonnets, including microfiber.


PC.
