just got my da

[tom t]

ive just got my da. i brought this kit http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/polis...ion-polisher-menzerna-intro-kit/prod_720.html

great service from them aswell am just after a few tips how to use it really. im going to be trying to get rid of light swirling.

when i got the car it had none. as i think it was waxed. i then clayed and washed the car which must have taken it all off.

i havent got any wax at the minute (will soon) so im thinking of useing the merzena polish to get rid of the swirls and then maybe putting some AG Ultra Deep Shine or AG Extra Gloss Protection on top. would that be ok?

saying that i have some AG aqua wax. if i was to use the aqua wax what would i put on first the waz or the EGP/UDS?

am really hoping for some great results. sorry for the massive post. have been doing lots of reading of other threads. so will be getting more products soon.

also can i go over stone chips with the da? or will it make them bigger?

also when i got the car before i clayed it the car looked mint in the body work department recently i have noticed areas which had been touched up. so would the clay have took the paint and wax off etc that was hiding this?

and if im to hit these areas with the da will it make them worse?

thanks alot any help much much much appreciated!!

Depending on how deep the swirls are try a light polishing pad and Menzerna 106FA. Thats a good place to start as its got slightly longer working times. It wont make stone chips bigger but you may get some polish in them with is fine.

Make sure you clay the car before machine polishing otherwise you will cause swirling and scratches. I cant really comment on the areas touch up with pictures, seeing the car.

All you need to know about machine polishing by DA is in there.

What other kit / products do you have already ? I mean from the basics as well (bucket, shampoo etc).
