Title: Can I use these polishes with a DA?
Post by: GTI8v on May 28, 2016, 07:27:06 pm

As title really, I've got these polishes in the garage and am wondering if I can use them with a DA?
Doesn't mention anything about machine polishing on the packaging. shame to waste them if not...

Yeah, they'll be fine.

As always start with the least aggressive combination of pad and polish and see what works best  :happy2:

Thanks, of the G3 products which would you say is the most agressive?
The MER I know is a fine polish which I used to swear by, the only issue being it leaves a lot of chalky dust.

I would think the scratch remover will be the most aggressive of the two but not very familiar with the G3 products as I don't really use them.

You will find some compounds and polishes are more "dusty" then others.
