First off..thanks to everyone that shares information on this forum. I was able to take advantage of a Lowe's special on a PC 7336 (thanks to this forum).



Next step is to order a backing plate and pads. Any recommendations on package pricing or starter kits are appreciated. (please provide links if possible)



I have a 1992 black Accord. Needless to say, I have my work cut out for me.



I appreciate your time and expertise in responding.
 
Glad to hear you were able to get the PC at the discounted price.



If you do a search, you will see the pad question is asked very often on this forum. There are 3 main brands of pads that most people use. Edge, Lake Country, and Meguiars. I personally use Lake Country pads. For your car, a good selection would be orange cutting pad, white polishing pad, and maybe a gray finishing pad. Places like Autogeek.net stock the Lake Country pads. I don't know too much about the other pads, but I'm sure someone will chime in and help you out.

Thanks Mikebai1990.



I performed several searches and learned a lot before my 1st post. It appears that everyone agrees that a 5" plate and 6 1/2" pads are the way to go.



I looked at a couple of links that provide different backing plates and pads. All of your opinions are welcomed.
