View Full Version : Powered polisher?!
Missis wants to get me a Xmas present and we ended up looking online at the electronic polishers around the £50-£70 range and wondered if anyone uses them to get the fantastic shines I see at shows? And if there were any recommendations people could make to go for?!

Tbh thats not going to get you a good quality one. If you can up it to a ton, Dodo Juice are doing a decent one

Personally I wouldn't use a rotary if you're a beginner, start with a DAS-6 ...something like this is a good starter kit: http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polishing-machines/das-6-dual-action-polisher/das-6-dual-action-polisher-menzerna-intro-kit/prod_721.html ...you can get a bigger kit for more money but you'll probably find that you'll want to try different pads and polishes and build up your own collection of what suits you. If you can stretch to it, invest in the DAS-6 pro http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polishing-machines/das-6-pro-dual-action-polisher/das-6-pro-dual-action-polisher-menzerna-intro-kit/prod_720.html ...it's a better motor and a longer cable etc. I've just noticed in the first one I linked, it has the wrong details, it actually only has a 500w motor and a 3 metre cable, their listing is wrong :confused:
Have a read through this :) http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=63859 it should tell you most of what you need to know.
Great read ..... Well I've started lol will read on when I get some free time - ta :)
