I`m planning on picking up a PC 7427, probably from autogeek.net since they have some nice package deals. For a beginner, would this be a good starter kit? Porter Cable 7424 & Foam Pad Kit - Car Buffer
For now, I just plan on using non abrasive polish like Meguiars deep crystal until I get familiar with it. Basically, with the intenet to remove some light swirls and to bring out an awesome shine.
I see that a lot of pads are called cutting pads. Are these pads used mostly for abrasive polishes? What would I need for a non to very light abrasive polish like I plan on using ?
Would it be a good idea to use this out of the box on my newer car, or should I practice on a beater first? In other words, is it easy for beginners to cause any damage even on a lower speed? I plan on starting out using a low speed on ot 2-3 until I get used to it and go from there. I`m familiar with using the one speed orbital buffers, but I`m sure the PC is quite different.
Any other tips would be greatly appreciated. I`m looking forward to using the PC.
