  • buffers/polishers

    any recommendations on a small buffer/polisher gizmo? 3-4" would suffice for polishing guitars. cheap would be good too.
    I want REAL change. I want dead bodies littering the capitol.

    I just use a normal rotary buffer but, I've been meaning to give one of these a whirl. Looks like it would make buffing the inside of the horns a bit easier.
    It's a hell of alot cheaper than a rotary setup too.

        Yeah, I'll definately be trying it on the next guitar that I paint.

          A Porter Cable Orbital. I bought mine cheap at Lowes. It comes with a Sponge applicator pad that works great and has a variable speed control. If you want to use Velcro attached pads, you get the the backing pad and sponge pads through Griots. http://www.griotsgarage.com An orbital is the way to go, you just can't burn the finish

          Tone is like Art: Your opinion is valid. Listen, learn, have fun, draw your own conclusions.

            Cant beat the pc! I detail cars privately and its the bees knees in that crowd. I used similar on my project guitar and it pounded my 2000grit sanding marks easily. Rotary's are technically better and much more efficient, but when talking about guitars, the size and especially the shapes, they're too risky and dangerous imo. The mothers powerball should get you a great shine on its own though!
