So I use a Makita for areas where a smaller pad helps (pillars, bumper etc). The Makita has optional backing plates that I would highly recommend since the included 6.5 inch "honker" is useless IMO. I would get the 4 7/8 inch (125mm) backing plate and the 95 mm backing plate. They use the 5.5 inch and 4 inch pads respectively. (They also have a larger 5 7/8 inch or 150mm that handle 6 or 6.5 inch pads). Can't comment much on the PC since I've never used one. Hope that helps.

I ordered the Prima Polishing package from Detailer's Domain this morning (used that new 20% off coupon too
). Thanks for the help =)
