I have a 10 inch orbital buffer now and we have a 7 inch one on sale at canadian tire! i think the 7 inch one have a bit less osscilatory movement! and i really need to buff my car theres a ton of swirls on it (well for me) and i dont own a buffer or a pc cause im a bit too...

where would i find this ? I just dont wanna spend over 40$ and be disapointed! (i should not but hey everything is possible) does any one on the net, a company or something gives out sample? maybe even on this site (i would pay but not the 40$ for a jar of clay)
