i think it's time to get a new buffer. i actually gave away my old rotary a long time ago, and have been detailing by hand all this time.

as i contemplate the swirled and somewhat neglected finish of my black bmw, i think it's time to get a new buffer. ayaw ko na sa rotary - it's heavy, messy and needs too much attention to make sure you don't swirl or burn the paint.

who has a good ROB (random orbital buffer) they can recommend? the detailing geek sites all recommend the Porter Cable, but with all the required ek ek it hits about 200 USD. is there a better value out there, or am i better off just getting the Porter Cable? anyone with some experience out there?

TIA
