    I have one. It does its job. Freebies are pretty useless. If your buying this, better purchase some velcro strips and waffle pads from true value.

    ROP - Random Orbital Polisher. Tama ba? hehehe. You can use this for wax, polish, cleaner wax application.

    yep random orbit polisher. according to autopia its the safest machine for newbies and their recommendation is the 7424 porter cable which i doubt if available here and if it is available price might be above 5t pesos.

    ild, yan nga problema ko kung may mga foam or mf pads na mabibili dahil sabi dun sa ace wala daw cla accessories para dun at sabi pa ay okay na daw yung kasama. heheh medyo natawa lang ako at sabi ko okay. natatangal ba backing plate? heheh stupid question of mine...

    You'd be better of with a Rotary, but practice muna hehehe.

    BTW mine is the B & D KP600. Di natatangal ang backing plate, pag wala kang makita sa ace, true value or hans, try going to Simex in Kamias, baking plate of the KP 600 is around 6" more or less so that will give you an idea on pad size you need to purchase.

    try to look for Bosch GEX or DeWalt 443. these have powerful motors and won't bog down when you apply pressure. although medyo maingay ang DeWalt--you won't be able to hear anybody with the racket you're causing.

    Rotaries--there can be only one I can recommend. Makita 9227. but this is a different animal altogether.
