Sander right?
Not the G110 DA Polisher.
For sanding they use a da pneumatic sander.

A lot of them use the Mirka Bulldog sanders.

Perhaps you could post a link of the sander at Home Depot you are referring to? It would make it easier for MOL members.

I was asking you for a link to one at Home Depot as you mentioned in your post quoted above. I was curious as to what you may have come across at Home Depot.

There's a couple of Mirka Bulldogs and a Ingersoll Rand, (I think).

What are you working on?
What are you wanting to accomplish?

Just as important as a quality DA Sander is your choice of sanding papers or disks.

A quality paper will leave a uniform sanding marks and this will make the buff-out easier and faster while leaving more paint on the car.

Man, be careful sanding that Bentley! I've done 2 in the past year, and they have been SUPER soft paint. Pay attention to what you're doing, and you'll be fine. I'm sure you have the experience, otherwise you wouldn't be working on a Bentley

BTW, I love the Mirka brand sanders. Thats what I and a few others use. Seems to be the most popular choice in palm sanders.
