Anyone got a Dual Action Polisher?

General General Lotus Talk

Got loads of time on my hands due to garden leave, so might clean the cars up.

Looking to take the swirls off the lotus, does anyone have a DA I could beg/steal/rent/borrow/etc?

I’m way too rookie for a rotary

It’s all in the wrist action. Speak to 6970K…he has bought a Porsche :open_mouth:

I think he will have problems Tim polishing a turd :laughing:

Current thread on MLOC Tim…

I was thinking more of a ‘ham shank’ Pete…

What is a Dual Action Polisher?

Thanks, Mike, I was too embarrassed to ask.

Buy one.
Not very expensive.
I got myself a complete kit from cleanyourcar.co.uk with DA Polisher, two different compounds and two or so different pads. It was around 140-150.

It is super easy and the result is great, unless yoy have deep scratches because then you’ll need a rotary.

cheers for the offer Will, decided to buy one as I doubt I’ll get it all done in one go and I’m sure shipping to and fro will soon add up

Will post up pictures as I go.

This is the one I went for. Fantastic at taking swirls and light scratches out.

yeah the paint on the lotus is marred for a slightly too aggressive clay, and then also being months from a last wash.

Going to coat it so thought it best that it’s cleaned properly first
