Title: Introduction to machine polishing
Post by: colgtiturb on 15 January 2012, 17:10

Right chaps,

I'm considering buying a DA machine polisher as I'm hearing great things about the results that can be obtained with them. I've got a Magic Black Pearl Golf & it's a nightmare trying to keep presentable. I currently use a variety of products - Auto Glym SRP / UDS, Autoglym EGP & also recently started using Poorboys Blackhole & Harly Wax. It looks pretty good after I've spent hours using the above, however am starting to get a little miffed with swirls - unless I wax it after washing there is normally loads of them - Ok I may be exaggerating, it doesnt look like some cars I've seen that have spent a life in a car wash, however isn't 100% either.

Thing is, I don't want to spend a fortune on something that I'm not going to use, so am looking for a decent deal on a 'package' to include the machine, pads & polish etc. Any ideas??

Also, can I carry on using Autoglym stuff with a machine polisher??

Cheers for any help!
