0 Richard 17 Report post Posted August 16, 2009 Quite the fleet. I've got two of the squar buff. We use one on every deck. But it would be nice to have the variety. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in the market for a standup sander, after experiencing first hand the speed and results of Jim Foley's "Defurno" marble polisher on ipe'. Is there any one type that would suffice for the following uses? As with you, this will only be used on exterior wood decks. Wood types will be primarily western red cedar, red mahogany, and ipe'. We have little need to sand PT deck floors. Ideally, I would like a unit that weight can be "added" as needed. Jim's unit is about 150 lbs., very heavy to load/unload and schlep around. But the weight is needed for buffing woods like ipe'. Really desire something one person can move fairly easily. Less weight is probably desirable for softwoods like cedar, which a light buffing works well and does not raise tannins to the surface. I guess the first criteria is orbital verses random orbital. Jim's unit is orbital and a bit difficult to control initially. Not sure if my help could master this for a while. The other factor is availability of various pads and brushes. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
