Heavy and not very smooth. Make a good angle grinder!  :laugh:

Your better off starting with a DA!  :happy2:

I have one of these somewhere actually.

Used it for months- perfectly up to the job. Infact, it's outlasted my Meguiars Dual Action Polisher and my CYC Rotary  :grin: :grin:

Get it mate. But make sure you buy a 3m backing plate and some nice pads  :happy2:

Take a look there. The silver line is actually cheaper...



You NEED one of these too. Do NOT scrimp here. It will ruin your polishing life..

thanks all, very much just looking to get an idea of whats right and wrong at the moment.

I plan to read up on everything before i even get close to the car.

Greeners, whats a "DA" ? What polisher do you use?

Keano, thanks - will research the best pads. Great, so does the backing plate sit between the machine and the pad?

so much to learn.....

The standard (blue) Silverline polisher has more usable speed for burnishing 600-3000rpm, and as a bonus there cheaper than a Siverstorm, For the weekend user there are perfect although if you not confident a Dual action (DA) polisher is better.
