I've learned to use less pressure with the wheel. I'll really apply pressure on a rough stain in the wheel, but let the wheel work, and with the yellow wheel, just apply mild pressure. Seems enough to change the tone of the grinder.
Oh and IF you do the white wheel, slow down your grinder, I set my Makita at about 3-4 level setting. The white wheel isn't supposed to be spun full speed.

I gave up on polishers a couple years ago due all the reasons previously stated , yeah its crappy work but got tired of paying people with drug issues only to have the work destroyed by salt and calcium chloride.
Pulled the outside wheels and had them replaced with accushield wheels ..no issues since and spend about half on washes .User666, Speed_Drums and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
I’m in dacono co I charge 90 a wheel that’s with sanding and a $1.00 a gallon for tanks with sanding both cut and color on all.
JonJon78, Tug Toy and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
Prices have sure gone up. I remember $40 for tanks, $10-$15 for wheels. 20 yrs ago, Lol. I’m not saying your work isn’t worth it, but $150 for each tank,and $90 a wheel, total $840, that counts Me out.
