    Nice order, the cookie monsters are some of my favs. They don't feel anything like regular microfiber. There is a good reason why the have a nice price premium.

    Jadeboy: The Rona does have it's own backing plate. The PC does not with the basic kit. Just get the Sonus pads, maybe 2 blue 2 white and 1 yellow. Is this for the IS?
    Sorry must have missed the part about it being random orbit. I still don't like the random orbit, it is much slower and god forbid the wax has hardened for too long.

    Any recommendations for specific pads and compounds (start to finish) for taking out regular swirl marks on my black S4? I have a Makita 9227C but I haven't used it yet because I can't figure out exactly what pads/product I need to be using.

    Should have bought a cyclo - i know some people ( ) think it's an oversexed floor buffer, but it's an oversexed floor buffer that does a really good job and makes it impossible to damage your paint if you're a detailing noob.

    It is possible to drop the Cyclo on the paint hahaha. It is kind of large. I joke, but in reality the machine is quite large and I found it felt a bit awkward using it to work on tighter areas. I really like that it covers a large area.

    I don't have anything worked out now. I have too much on the go and not enough resorces to book a car wash. Hopefully I can get things together soon!
