The new Deltalyo Power Plus would be my choice, it is a new powerful DA with a few other nice extra's......less vibration, longer power cable etc etc.

As for polish and pads, give me a budget to work too and i'll try and sort you a nice kit out  :wink:

That would be more than enough, lets have a look.....

Deltalyo DA - £119.95
Meguiar's No. 80 - £12.95
Meguiar's No. 84 - £13.95
Meguiar's Finishing 7" Pad - £11.95
Meguiar's Polishing 7" Pad - £11.95
Dodo Juice Small Backing Plate - £9.95
Sonus SFX 2 & 3 4" Pads - £9.90

That would be a great starter kit that gives you a great machine with both big and small pads. The DA comes complete with a 5' and 6" backing plate which saves you a bit of money. We have got the sale on until midnight tomorrow which would give you 10% off the prices above, plus you would still earn another 5% in reward points to use towards your next order  :wink:

I haven't added any compounding pads in, you may want to if you have any specific scratches you want to have a go at.

Let me know what you think,

Chris

Looks good, will be about a week or so though,
What about polish, glaze, sealant?

I have 500ml AG SRP, going to buy purple haze and jetseal, do I need anytging else?

SRP, No.80 and No.84 are all polishes.

Just need applicators and a few microfibres and that should be you  :smiley:
