I am looking for a sander to polish some corian and i came across some DA sanders that says "great for bodywork." I was not sure if that ment ripping off old paint or it is similar to obital in that it will not leave scratch marks Speaking of which, can any recommend a quality ROS and perhaps indicate what a guy can expect to pay? |

It was a refurb. Check out www.toolking.com. New I think they push sixty bucks or so. This one is NOT variable speed. I like it, but be advised that the PC's use the 5 hole disks. Just about everyone else went with 8 holes. I've not had any trouble finding disks for it. Just a caveat. |

The Porter Cable models 7335, 7336, 97355, or 97366 Sanders. I have had one
since 1988. Very aggressive well coupled with the same brand model 330 Speed-Bloc. I have had that one since 1988 also. "Ben Siders" wrote in message .com...

I have a Porter-Cable 333VS and am very happy with it. I got mine from
International Tool (http://www.internationaltool.com/pcrosanders.htm#333VS) and paid about $83.00. Chuck "Ben Siders" wrote in message .com... Leon wrote: Orbital will leave scratch marks.
