Old School Buffer!!

OK, that clears things up. I'd be *very* careful using that thing. Only use it on "low" speed. Have a PC handy in case you inflict holograms. On second thought, just leave it alone and get yourself a PC/Cyclo instead. You could do some real damage with that Craftsman if a) you don't know what you're doing with it and/or b) you make a little mistake.
 
Both the high rpms and the direct-drive nature of the machine. And the way that particular direct-drive ("rotary") polisher doesn't give you any real options except the two speeds.



Sorry to rain on the parade, but there's just no way I'd recommend that machine. As I recall, my father had one of tose too! Or at least he had *some* two speed Craftsman like that back in the early '80s. I used it, but with only so-so results. And that was back when I was using a rotary all the time at my summer job. Ours ended up being used for heavy-duty grinding with abrasive discs. It seemed much better suited to that than to polishing cars.



If you cut through/burn the paint with that, the cost of the repair will far exceed the cost of just buying a PC instead ;)
