cyclo polisher has my head spinning

received my new cyclo polisher today. got it from perfect polish but did not order any pads. also I don't have the hook-loop holder pad holder.

so is ordering these things from perfect polish or cyclo the only place I can get 'em? I see that many are using this device w/ old sweat shirts and cotton rages etc. I plan to use a big random orbiatal w/ 3m imperial cut for the first pass and finish w/ the nuvite/cyclo.

I did some searches and read many a threads, but I'm looking for a clear answer and so far it's not makig itself available to me. I figured I'd just call perfect polish up and ask them and possibly buy what I might need. but I can't find a phone # anywhere on their site. I'm hesitant to start ordering stuff on the chance it might be what I need.

thanks,

paul schuster

I bought my cyclo from Winners Circle when they had it on special. They also have combo packs that will give you several options that fit most of our polishing needs. We have a 52 Ford truck that we show, along with the Argosy. We have used it successfully on both. Of course the Argosy is not as labor intensive as the Airstream, but it certainly makes the wax shine come out on both the Argosy and the 52.

Hi- Just read your message, NOT sure why you can't find "PERFECT POLISH" phone number on their site, I just went back and retreived it for you, it is on the page: "About the company" is is a toll free 877-370-0269.
Happens that I called them yesterday, AND you get to talk to Tom himself, one heck of a nice guy and quite informative as well! Tom's prices are a few dollars more than VTS but he has FREE shipping which in my opinion, is a savings in the end. Tom carries everything you would need and will provide a good deal of help. I might suggest you also buy the polishing video, VERY helpful about the entire process and when returned, you are given either cyclo wraps or a small sample of ANY grade of Nuvite....just thought you'd like to know...... John
