The debate was long,

very long

should I go for random orbital

or

buffer (9227CB-like)?

searching & reading , looking for prices , possibilities, availability,...

I finaly ordered the Makita BO6040 as my detailing machine to be.

What are the features?

Pad dia.:6"

Amp 115V:6.6A

Amp 220V:3.4A (I ordered this one of coarse)

Power : 750 Watts

Forced rotation : 180 -> 670 RPM

Orbits per minute : 1600->5800 OPM

Orbit dia.7/32"

Weight : 5.9 lbs

Price : normaly 423 Euro , but "winter"promo : 185Euro!!!!!!!!!!

(223Euro with taxes) that's the reason Santa will come empy handed, this promo only lasts 'till Dec.6th



As far as I could trace the Internet , the BO6040 should be simmular to the PC 7366 , but with more power (at 115V a PC7366 takes 3.6Ampere = about 420Watts)



At Autopia no one ever reviewed the BO6040 , guess I'll be the first.



Now I have to figure out a way to get a CMA pads-package shipped to Belgium.

All ideas are welcome.

Where did you order this machine from? Dont forget CMA will now ship to Europe.

I ordered in the toolshop a couple of miles from where I live, they need 10 days to get it in the shop, 'cause it's a scarse(sp?) order



Are you sure CMA ships to Europe?

I checked a few minutes ago and I got the message that they just began to ship to Canada but no further.

Yes, CMA do ship to Europe, I have ordered stuff from them in the recent past and I think one or two others have also done the same.

I 've sent a mail to CMA

and

yes

1/2 hour later the answer was that they do ship to Europe:xyxthumbs



Now it's up to me to make a list of what I want and fax the order
