I recently bought a Mazda 5 that is in dire need of some paint help, but don't have the right tools to do a decent job. I know at least one person around here has mentioned that they bought a decent buffer but are now over detailing - let me know if you'd like to exchange those unused tools for cash!
I'm located in Richmond CA but also have a newborn and 2 year old, so shipping is probably best.
Not trying to derail your WTB thread, but if you come up empty, you might sign up for Autogeek emails. I bought my buffer as well as many other detailing supplies from them. They run sales virtually all the time. With a little patience you can usually take advantage of one of them for most near any item you might desire.
They also have a very active detailing forum too, if that's your deal. The water is deep in there though.
If you don’t come up with one here, harbor freight’s top end one that looks like a porter cable is well worth the $68 or whatever i paid for it
I'll definitely follow up with autogeek. Harbor freight is also on the table for sure, just thought someone might have something sitting around (with some accessories and so on? A guy can dream).
