Megesh and I had the chance to borrow a Makita 9227CB for a week. We used it briefly yesterday on a test panel that we have lying in my garage.
This morning I decided to give it a go on a real car so called a frien of mine to pop over with his bakkie which used to have stickers on it and has never been polished since it was bought about 7yrs ago. I offered to do half his bonnet as a test.
My plan was to pop out and grab some water paper to get rid of the sticker marks on the bonnet, but I couldnt find anything finer than a 1200 grid so I decided to leave the wet sanding for another weekend.
Didint get rid of the sticker marks, but this is what I did do.
