In the market for a new DA polisher as a hand job just isn't cutting it no more. Bit of a novice to detailing and will be using it occasionally. Done a bit of research and three particular DA polishers keep cropping up.. DAS-6-pro, Megs G220 V2 and the Dodo Juice Buff daddy.
Anyone have any experience with any of them? Any pros or cons?
Cheers in advance

IMO all the same and I would go for the one with the best bundle offer TBH.
I have a G220v1 FWIW and it has lasted me 3 years.

I got the DAS6 pro from Polished Bliss for my birthday - not used yet but seems to get good reviews. As Stealthwolf says, they do all seem much for much to be honest. I got the Hard Paint kit as well.

Juicy Detailing are selling the Dodo Juice Buff Daddy DA as well - seems a decent price.

I think I read somewhere that the dodo juice buff daddy is a das 6 but its £5 more,
I think I'd go for the meguires or das 6 pro, but as said check out the deals on the bundle packs and check out where the best savings lie :happy2:

I would guess that they're all churned out in the same Chinese factory and just badged differently.
I could be talking sh1t though.

Bought the Megs Microfibre system last year from Clean your Car, came with cutting compound and finishing polish. Spent a long time on the phone discussing my needs. Very helpful. The pads do not stand up to a washing machine wash, they just fall apart :fighting: Used it only a hand full of times, had good results so far.
Get yourself over to Waxstock this year. Theres always a chance to get your hands on one and lots of demo's too. You'll probably get a good discount as well whilst your there.
It's not nearly as scary as everyone says it is. :signLOL:

You put polishing pads in the washing machine!?!?!
My Meguiars one has constantly needed new brushes! which Megs can't supply... maybe why they went to a v2.

Sorry to hi jack but this thread is just what I was going to start.
I'm looking to start on my own detailing, and am looking at this kit on eBay

How often have you been using the polisher? Mine's a V1 hence the question.
