A machine polisher is a dangerous thing in the wrong hands.

Take a look at this excellent write up.

My advice would be don't just jump in and start using it, think very carefully about what you are doing and why you are doing it. Does you're car require paint correction?

If you need more info PM me I'd be more than happy to help you.

Is it a rotary or a DA polisher?

I haven't a clue mate what's the difference ?.

Il try get a pic of it.
