ms. bc - look at it this way, you are still ahead of 99.9% of the population when it comes to autocrossing, and most likely driving in general. It's all about practice, experience, and repetition.

I'd like another shot at COTA once I get my oil cooler installed, but that will be a while in the making. Enjoy what you have, what you've done/can do, and move on.

Next patient!

Have a great day all! :tiphat:

:tiphat: Thanks Gurney-I was so upset I amjust now able to talk about it without being a girl. Which makes me NO HAPPIER! LOL I hate that crap in myself.

Well, I think it depends on the direction you are going with your gear. If you're looking to get spend the $$$ and have the full range of equipment, I would go for the full thing. I haven't personally heard a lot about the Dewalt, but I'm sure it's fine. My buddy has the Porter Cable version and loves it. Also, the pads are bigger, so the jobs get done faster.

If you're like me and don't have the time or money to sink into detailing, I would go with the Meguiar's DA. I actually do everything by hand at the moment, but it takes so much time that I don't get to do it more than a few times per year. The DA would also be useful for some of the deeper scratches that I have had trouble doing by hand or if I need to polish larger areas. I already have the full lineup of Meguiar's pads, so that's another reason I would lean towards the Meguiar's DA. You should be able to purchase the DA, a two pack of each type of pad (compound, polish, and wax), as well as rubbing and polishing compounds for <$100.

:eek: IKR!? it is rotating, in the same area, if you look at the national radar. :wtf:

LMBmikeZ 07-02-2013 10:16 AM

:iagree: with Jar it depends on how far you want to go or take your detailing. However I have both rotary and DA I can safely say 95-98% of the time a DA will be more then enough to get the job done:tup:

I would also look into getting 2 different sizes of pads and back plates so you can get to all areas large or small. My griots DA I use both 6" and 3" pads :tup:

I'm thinking meguiar's too, just because it has the feedback circuit to increase torque at pressure loads. And I don't need to fix anything more than swirls, I want it more to polish and shine the Mistress.

I'm leaning towards the da, but it's more like $179 not including pads or compounds.

I've got a griots 3" buffer already for my headlight restoration side job and it works great. It made my life so much easier. That's why I want a bigger one, I wanna make my car turn break necks.
