    Cars looking sweet mate!

    Ive always wanted a PC, but getting one from the states and lugging a transformer around isnt fun!

    Meguiars are supposed to be releasing a 240v one in the coming months so im gonna wait and see the price of that first...

    or if you get to tesco they have a cheap angle grinder on sale atm for about 20 quid, you just need to swap out the grinding pad and add a soft buffer pad and you are away !

    They are ok but possible to burn the paint due to heat build up, with a pc s movement the heat build up is a hell of a lot less plus if you put too much pressure down on the head of a pc it will stop turning whereas a rotary wont

    like that? i've heard that rotary's are harder to control than the random orbital like the PC's.

    What would you need to convert that grinder?
