    6" orbital pads

    Hey guy`s,

    I have a 6" orbital and it came with just the basic pads. I`m looking to pick up an assortment of different pads. Every place I went to just carry’s the wool pads.

    Thanks,

    John

    I checked all of the places in my area and they are completely out of stock. I usually do everything by hand, but then again I always had my cars in a garage. The truck doesn`t fit in my correct garage, so I`m building a new house that has a bigger garage. I just need to get the swirls and haze out.

    Listen to jeff, swirl marks with an orbital and I think you mentioned a truck that does not fit in your garage. That sounds like trying to kill a rino with a feather.
    There is allways room for improvement

    Well, if it were me, i would "hide" the swirls until i could get the right machine.

    The PC and the cyclo are the only thing that can be used instead of a rotary. Thats as far down the line as it gets, nothing worth a darn replaces the PC, as it is already the weaker, safer replacement tool.

    You won`t regret the PC. I waited 15 years as I was convinced it was just a glorified orbital like the small or large ones you can get at walmart. I hated those and figured I`d hate the PC and be out more dough. I was wrong.
