Sandin' the entire body on my ol' Chevelle by-hand is a little slow (getting some intense tricept, and peck workouts though LOL) Just wondering what you bodyshop-gurus had in mind? Kind of on a budget at the moment (who isn't? lol) Any advice would be appreciated ;o) -Dano- <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> ~~~The more People I meet, the more I like My Dog..~~~ -96' Tacoma 3.4 4x4 5 Speed, Trueflow intake+Deckplate, 2.5 inch Magnaflow Cat-back,OME 881's, and some extra-leaves in the rear.. -68' Chevelle Malibu..Stage one of Restoration: *Collecting funds* <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Re: Lookin' for a decent sander..

I've had the 'turbo'/standard orbit mode on a Festool - great feature. The turbo mode changes it to a straight rotation and will remove material very fast. The standard random orbit mode on these more powerful sanders is fantastic and fast though compared to the palm sanders. The bigger, two hands, 6" types are the way to go if you're sanding alot of area. concreteprinter.com Re: Lookin' for a decent sander..

It totally rocks with agressive sandpaper. But then, i've only used it on wood so far. It was only $35. 1990 Montero RS (In pieces... for now) KG6VNX Re: Lookin' for a decent sander..
