Or

What would you recommend adding to this for a starter package? I.e which pads and polishes and how much?

Post by: sharki786 on 25 April 2013, 20:15: Right peeps. Its been ages since i asked about this. Guy at work who details his car has a DA polisher and has had a look at my paint work and has said best to get a rotary. Now i have never touched a polisher. My question is, will i be ok using a rotary?
Also, what do people think of dodo juice purple haze?
Want to "mop" my car so need:
Deep cutting compound
Light cutting compound
A good sealant
Good wax (dodo juice purple haze?)
Rotary poliser?
& polishing pads

Thanks

Budget as said before 150 tops. Seen in an earlier post for simular things for under 150 by waxamomo

P.s colour of car is mystic blue

Post by: mark@vorny.co.uk on 25 April 2013, 22:08: It will take you longer with a DA but you can still get great results and they are easier for the newbie. I bought a Kestrel as my first and it's that easy that even my son who was 14 at the time has done a car for me.

I have since bought a Flex rotary and am glad I started with a DA.

Thing is that i have been told the same by 2 of my mates (takes longer to get the swirls out with a DA) so if chris (waxamomo) gets in touch with me on a deal then most likely i will buy it next week
