i am looking to buy a da but the palm sander ones.. wheres is a good place to pick one up. I am looking for a good quality tool. And what are the price range on them. I am also looking to buy a tape machine to hold all the paper and tape where could i find one of those at. Thanks for your help

 

A good D/A is gonna cost around $200 give or take.I have had alot of them,but the Dynabrade one's are the best.I have two I use now.A 3/16 orbit for rough/dry sanding and a 3/32 orbit for wet sanding.Don't bother with the vacume or integrated wet ones,there all useless,you'll just end up useing a regular one.USA Tools usually have them on there trucks.

 

thanks bro i think im gonna pik one of those up

 

where could i get a tape masking machine for a fair price???

 

get a dynabrade or a hutchins da. for the paper machine I would go to harbour freight. like 40 bucks for a machine that fits like three rolls of 18" paper.

I've got a dynabrade, I love it, use it to death.

 

thanks josh yea thats what i did lol.. internships are starting and i got a job at edmorse caddilac so i wanna have my own tape machine.. Cuz ima gonna do alooot of taping for a while lol..

 

as for the da i think ima pik up a dynabrade.. what are u guys opinion on using hook it.. do you use it??? is it worth getting it

 

lol good luck! Say hey to Doug for me, and punch the manager in the face!

 

I use hook-it. It's more expensive but it's worth it to keep from flinging pads across the shop.

Plus I just really like how easy it is to work with and the fact that if you need to switch grit in the middle of something you can always re-use the pad without worrying about getting the sticky side dirty.

Of course wet sanding is a lot easier too because the velcro doesn't get weaker with water unlike the sticky.
