Just got my Adam’s goodies last week and I’m trying to work out the speeds I should use for my polisher.
I’ve got a Ryobi 750W Random Orbital Sander Polisher http://www.ryobi.co.nz/Products/PowerTools/Corded/Sanders/ERO750VK.aspx which uses letters instead of numbers for the speed. A to F compared to 1 to 6 for the PC. The PC XP operates from 2500 to 6800opm’s, the Ryobi 4000 to 7000opm’s.
According to the ‘Junkman’s Paint Correction’ videos, set PC to ‘5’ for SHR and FMP and ‘3’ for FMW. Am I correct in saying that ‘5’ will have a speed of about 6000opm’s? 6800 – 2500 = 4300. 4300 / 6 = 716opms. So 5 x 716 = 6000opms. From that I should set the Ryobi to ‘D’ for SHR and FMP and ‘A’ for FMW maybe ‘B’
Also the Adam’s pads seems to be a snug / tight fit with the factory backing plate. Fits evenly and doesn’t move. Takes a few attempts to get it right, I might need a bit of practice
Almost forgot, love the smell. Can't wait to see how the car smells afterwards.
