You may as well buy yourself a Kestrel DA, use it, and sell it on ebay afterwards than hire one ?

Probably cost you less ?

Seems like quite a good deal to me, especially if you are only a once a year kind of guy, like my self.

Saves you space at home not needing to store all of the pads/polish/machine etc.

Had I not bought one my self I'd use this service.

I can't say I like the idea of the Monza drill attachment one. It won't give you anywhere near the amount of control that a proper machine would.

As for hiring, it seems like a good idea, but I don't think you can beat having your own kit and having it to hand whenever you need it. What happens if you break it, or the previous user has left it on its last legs? They don't tell you what they'll do to you if that happens.

Save up and buy one from cleanyourcar.co.uk. More money but you will just end up buying one anyway.

Just ordered a Flex polisher from them and the points system works out well.
