[QUOTE="cvkit17, post: 1064505036, member: 131276"] I bought this B&D KP600 ROB some time ago. It was one of my first step into amateur detailing. B&D ROB is very common and available at many departmental stores and hardware shops. This machine makes a great tool for waxing or minor paint cleaning but it is very troublesome when you need to change pads because it uses bonnets instead of velcro pads. Another disadvantage is that you can only buy B&D Bonnets. :banghead: So I am going to modify it so it can use velcro-backed pads.

Make sure you buy the one with adhesive. If not, you'll have to use superglue or dunlop contact adhesive.
