peter richards Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 my machines are probably ott for you as i use them all the time , but the das 6 kit seems to be recommended reading back , look on detailing world , might find a used one but there are companies on there that will supply new .compounds and pads are just as important , can work out expensive if your only going to use it a few times, just keep that in mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattP Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 It's something I need to do I have put it off every year. It's a crappy bucket list item clearly haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samdale Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Another vote for the das 6. This is the one i bought. Decent bit of kit although i must confess to not using it as much as i should. Should also say i am a complete novice but have found it easy enough to make a satisfying amount of improvement to the black aging black paint with plenty of swirls on my MR2. 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripped_fear Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 If you go for a das6 get the pro variant. That's what I have brilliant piece of kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
