Default what kind of buffer should i purchase?

I'm in the market for a buffer, what's the best? Makita? Milwaukee? Pc? I can buff but have not done it in awhile so I want to purchase a nice one and practice paint correction on my black car before I paint it also what are good pads and products?

This is a pretty good price and comes with everything you need.

I use a makita daily as i am a painter. It's a variable speed buffer and i love it. Not too heavy. Use 3m pads preferably the white foam pad with compound and the gray foam pad with polish. the foam pad isn't as aggressive so it lessens the chance of burning through. Wool pads are way too aggressive and grab edges and corners and mouldings and antennas too easily!!!!!
