Orbital buffer

Go to sears.com and search for 10626. Craftsman random orbital buffer for 29.99 on sale. I ordered one, hopefully it works pretty well. Just thought i'd give a heads up

I was going to buy that but the motor is very weak. Im going to go with a Porter Cable 7424 from CoastalTools.com. About 4x the price but worth it for my very sensitive paint. It oscillates instead of rotating so to reduce swirl marks. If the craftsman doesnt do it for yah check it out.

Can't say for sure that's the one I have, but it looks damn similar without having mine next to me. The motor isn't obviously incredible, but it's solid. Mine has worked for several years now and as long as it spins at the rate needed, no need for anything else. I've used it on a blue, white, and grey car, always the same. The tool, while important, will generally do a similar job as others. It's the user and materials that make the difference.
