Title: Few general questions
Post by: sambo on 13 August 2009, 19:58

Few questions as I may be buying a DAS 6 machine polisher  :huh:

Can I use a DA to rub in wax on a car?

Whats the differance between waxes and sealants?

Do you glaze a car before you wax it?

Do you have to wash the DA pad's after every go, or can they not be washed? (in a washing machine?)

Cheers, Sam  :smiley:

I'll answer them in order for you.

1. You can apply some waxes with a DA but by hand is much easier. Dodo Juice have a wax called Supernatural which is available as a "machine stick".

2. Yes, you glaze before you wax.

3. Yes you have to wash the pad's after every session. You do not want dirt sitting on your pads as you will only end up scratching your car if you don't.

Hope that helps,

Chris
