Well I need help picking a buffer. The one that I use now is pretty much a Dewalt grinder with a buffer pad on the end. It actually works pretty well, but I was curious if there is anything better out there. My budget is about 100 bucks. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks guys!

My shop bought me the Chicago Electric 7" with the digital display. Hate it. Slow start bugs the crap out of me and if you adjust while running it's really slow to respond. Barely fast enough at maximum for fine polishes and a foam pad. If you feather the trigger you get massive unwanted speed variation due to the crappy slow start feature.

My Makita at my house is a million times better, but nowhere near that price range. Has the roller dial for speed adjust and you can feather the trigger if needed without issue. You are in control rather than a cheap processor.

Static drops are my bag.

Well how much is the Makita

Mine was $240 for the tool, kit, and bag. They have a few different models.

I generally use Makita electric tools but I've heard decent reviews on the Dewalt buffers as well if you can find them cheaper.

I have a Dewalt buffer already. I think I'll take a look at mikita though.

You need more than one buffer to detail properly.

Check out ammo nyc on YouTube for detailing advice that guy loves his trade and knows his shit, very informative vids.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.
