well low and behold, i get home from work yesterday, and there it is... a brand spankin new cyclo :getdown
we had talked about getting me something... i even looked at a g100 from Meguiars at a car show this past weekend, and almost bought it... she talked me out of spending the $$ for it. while at the show, i did pick up some megs products... 80 / 83 / colorx / scratchx / nxt / and some more clay.
so i guess now is the trial under fire sort of thing... which stuff that i bought... with which pads? apparetnly she got the kit off of ebay (which i`ve been told isnt the best deal out there - but too late to inform her) but regardless it`s what i have. (exact same setup on the pinnacle wax website)
Cyclo Orbital Polisher
2 Hook and Loop Pad Holders
2 Cyclo White Finishing Pads
2 Cyclo Green Polishing Pads
4 LC Orange Light Cutting Pads
2 Cyclo Yellow Cutting Pads
4 Spot Buffs White Polishing Pads
i will want to try out some of the other products reccomended... but for the time being, i`m just happy to have what i do. i want to have at some of my own cars, before tackling anyone elsess (esp. my boss`s $$$ cars that he wants me to detail).
i used one years ago, and really liked it... thus why i put the idea in her head (plus i found an ad in an old eastwood catalog thats been on the fridge for a few years now)
i know it won`t be able to do everything... like parts on an xjs ;) but for what i want to do with it... it should be more than adequate
:spot :2thumbs: :spot :getdown - i can`t wait to give it a "whirl"
