I probably wouldn't start on a brand new car (practice a little bit on something else first), but a DA is a very easy tool to use and risk of doing damage is very minimal. Common sense and follow some basic guides on here and elsewhere and you won't go far wrong. One of the best tools I ever invested in anyway, you'll have it for years and years long after the sheen of that expensive detail has worn off.

Ideally I would like a proper detailer to do my car straight from dealers but finances are on limit and feel GAP and Wheel ins are a definite.
So hopefully I will be able to do a semi reasonable job myself as when I get my car I will have a few days off work.
Few questions , my friend has a DA polisher is it safe for a novice to use on new paintwork? ( I will probably practice on my work van 1st)
What products would be best for the paintwork to seal?
Advise appreciated.
Thanks

Give Jim_Mk7.5 on here a shout, he is doing me a cracking deal on a new car detail including wheels when my new Tiguan arrives.

Thanks for the recommendation William! Feel free to drop me a PM if interested  :smiley:
