( I've just cleaned the Xsara. Once a year whether it needs it or not. Is a dual action machine polisher like the whirly brush thing for a jet wash.)

not quiet, a D/A polisher would look like this one below and differs from a rotary path as seen in the image (thanks DaveKG - of DW fame)

dezzy, just get yourself a scrap panel(s) to practise on.chances are you'll buy a D/A and after a few weeks wish you hadn't spent the cash on it and had went for a rotary. myself, and am sure ally, would be only too happy to give a few pointers.

Well done Dezzy
. Visited these guys the other day to get advice on how to keep the Exige looking nice. Guy spent about 1/2 hour explaining all the different polishes, sealers, glazes, cloths, applicators etc etc. We got onto the subject of polishing machines and to cut a long story short he reconned that for an Exige/Elise the machines were a waste of time. You would spend longer masking off than you would hand polishing. Save your money and buy some elbow grease

Really friendly bunch at Polish Bliss and quite willing to walk you through the whole detailing carry on.
