Is there a ONE HANDED DA buffer....with a good throw....? I only find two handed buffers......are there any that you can hold and buff the car with one hand...? Like one of the small one-handed vibrating sanders.
All the two handed ones are...well.....just too damn big.

Which color pads do I need? Just for very minor correction, then to apply the sealant wax?
My Trans Am paint is excellent.....our Porsche Macan paint is almost flawless. I also do a couple other cars for family members that are very new cars.
So just the basic pads are needed.
Thanks.

Black to apply final sealant....?
But you're saying black is fine if the paint is in great shape already to do both correction and seal......?
Does Harbor Freight sell all these pads too....?

The polisher comes with a 6in. backing plate. They do not sell 5in. backing plates or pads, only 6in. So if you are going to go with the backing plate that comes with it get the 6in. pads.
Yes, with the black pads you can try compounding with them. The reason I say this is if you can get the correction you are looking for with the black pad it will finish down really nice. If you're not getting the results you want then get more aggressive with the pad and go to the blue.

Every brand pad has a different color scheme but the recommendation I gave you was for harbor freight pads.
