  • WTB Rotary backing plate in so cal TODAY

    hey guys so i picked up my makita last night for 100 bucks. used for few hours. i guess the guy polishes glass and said it was too heavy for him to hold up for long periods of time above his head.
    well the buffer came with everything minus pads n backing plate. all i have is a 3" backing plate that i use on my g110 with the rotary adapter. was wondering if anyone had an extra backing plate that theyre willing to part with... im in west covina right now at work but live in rancho cucamonga. so if anyone near those areas has one to sell id appreciate it. itching to try and buff something tomorrow on my day off haha.

    im preferrably looking for the meguiars w66 plate, but anything will do.

    thank you for your time

    I'm down in El Cajon, but if you can't find anything else, I have a few SOLO backing plates. It's yours for free if you don't mind the drive. See my email address in my signature to contact me.

                Tool? Isn't that big button on the head a spindle lock?

                I think the removal procedure is push button, grab plate and twist. (That's the procedure for the Dewalt, Porter-Cable/Flex, Milwaukee, etc.)
