Hey everyone been lurking here and absorbing as much information as possible for the past few months.
A little background on me. I`ve been doing hand wash, wax, and interiors for some family and a few of their friends. I finally have the funds to afford my first DA polisher but i`m not sure whats the best route to go with. I`ll probably only be doing one car per day as this is just a side job/hobby while i`m in school.
My father currently runs a small(as in selling one car a week) used car lot with a large repair business and currently sends his vehicles out to a local hack shop so I would be able to get those jobs. These cars don`t need to be perfect, just look better.
I`m probably going to get the PC 7424 XP as the polisher. Right now I work part-time at Fastenal`s northeast hub where we have a tool repair center that covers porter-cable so if anything breaks i could have it fixed fast. I`m going to check later today if the local store can get the XP in as we get a discount on anything.
So what i`m mainly looking for is what would be my best route for polishes and pads? The options are endless and i don`t want to spend money on things that will get used once then sit on a shelf. I would like have a pad for applying wax just to save some time on each job. I could also get any of these 3m products through work 3M Company Vehicle Wax | Fastenal
Here is what I already plan to buy to start
PC 7424 XP
5.5 in plate and pads color/number?
4 in plate and pads color/number?
8oz m105
8oz m205
and i already have Autoglym SRP and HD as my AOI/sealant and wax combo.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
