Cant remember what make mine is so not much help to you

Seems fairly decent. I dont really use it on my car though as I'm a bit bothered about some dust getting caught up in it and scratching all my paint. Also apart from the roof and bonnet its actually easier to do it by hand anyway cos of the way the corsa shell is curved.

You can get an attatchment for angle grinders which will do the trick.

an angle grinder willbe very hard to use, needsomething much slower. A mate did it with a drill atachment nd ended up with loads of buffer marks
