Question Question for you guys...

Where can i order or go get a good quality (manual speed control) high speed buffer/polisher and the chemicals (cutters, polish's, swirl removers) and back plate, pads (buff, polish, finish) to go with it for a decent price?? Can anyone help me out here por favor? Is there such a place that i can get all of the above from in one shot, or do i need to get them as i go??

I would start with Lowes for the PC. I have yet to find one cheaper then Lowes...........Then your going to need to elaborate on what type of condition your car is in so we can help you choose some products.

You might also check Coastal Tool, they have the 7424 for $109 +SH. If you're looking for one stop shopping, you can check this thread. I don't know if the sale is still goin on, though. This thread lists some of the popular online detailing sites as well as product manufacturers for chemicals and accessories. As Exceldetail mentioned, it would help to know the condition of your vehicle so recommendations can be made.

Before you buff your car I would really recommend clay barring it to make sure you don't have any gritty sand or particles on the top clear coat so the buffer doesn't embed them deeper or create more scratches.

I use Mother's Clay Bar
