If anyone is interested in buffers, this is my setup. If you have never used a circular polisher, i would not suggest buying one. If you dont know what you are doing it is very easy to burn through the paint.

This is the pad kit i got http://www.autogeek.net/curvededge.html
And this is the circular buffer i have http://www.autogeek.net/dw849.html
definately from what i have heard have someone show you how to use it. I personally have never used one before but i have used my DA long enough so i think i have a general idea of how it works.

i need to get a rotary polisher. the prelude i painted would look so much better if i polished it with a rotary. i got most of the wetsanding marks out w/ my DA but you can still see them up close. it urks me.
