    Yes, it comes with one polishing pad and I bought one extra polishing pad.

    Yeah, water spots are annoying. I can't keep them off my windows.

    If your rotary polisher is doing that the backing pad is clearly fucked up. :)



    I'm glad it all worked out man. You should throw on a coat of wax though to make the shiny goodness last.

    That's not a rotary polisher. It's a random orbital. It's what all the pros use.I use a rotary for buffing though.:)

    Bo lol, the one in the video is a rotary polisher, he even says it in the video. You keep thinking it's a random orbital because it's wobbling. And no one uses random orbitals for serious polishing in paint shops. Detail shops may for some applications. :)

    My bad. I didn't watch the vid. I just saw above it where he said that's what he used. Kinda stuck my foot in my mouth there.:eek:
    Yeah and the random orbital is good for waxing IMO.
