Default PC Kit selection

I happened to be a Lowes over the weekend and found a PC 7336SP for $50 so I couldn't resist. AutoGeek, can you help me with a pad kit, counterweight (if needed) and what the best polishing kit would be for your basic spiderwebbing and maybe something a little worse on my other daily driver vehicles. I currently have Pannacle Souveran for my wax. Thanks!!

great find and awesome price ....

I just got into this kit and find it a big bang for the buck. Dont need a backing plate and pads are interchangable and flippable.

This kit is great for a beginner. Not enough pads for the professional but more than enough for a two or three car owner. Comes with backing plate and some towels.

Both choices allow use of the forum discount and will offer many years of enjoyment. Consider your polishes well also. XMT, SSR, and Menzerna amongst others work well with the Souveran. And dont worry, use the counterweight already installed in your machine.

50.00 - Sweet deal - Where I'm at cost twice as much. Where they on clearance over there?

$50.00?!! That's a steal! That's the lowest price I've seen. I've read some good reviews on the XMT. You can get more infoe at www.autogeekonline.com great source of good info...

I bought the edge kit for my rotary buffer and really like it. It's got a quick release to change pads and like Scott already stated, the pads are 2 sided so it's like getting 2 of each pad.

It was on their Clearance table for some reason, I grabbed it thinking I could return it if there was an issue with it but everything was in the box and as far as I can tell it was never opened.

I was out of town so I plan on placing an order today for the pad kit and just need to decide on a polishing kit to go with it.

yeah, I was checking out the "Edge" stuff also - looks pretty cool. Have you had much use with it yet? Would love to see a review with your opinion and experience, when you have a chance. This is a pretty important new product

also, I wasnt' quite clear on whether you can use the Edge kit for rotary AND PC ?
