So one of my christmas presents this year was a DAS6 Pro Dual Action Polisher .



Came with 4 different Menzerna polishes , 2 Compounding pads , 2 Polishing pads , 1 Finishing pad , a 5" backing plate and a 4" backing plate . It didnt come with the Intensive polish that i needed so ordered that and another finishing pad and some 3M tape .

Im going to be buying 4m x 3m gazebo to do the polishing in and will be getting a pair of halogen lamps too !

Will be done around late march early april time when the weather has brightened up , cant wait to use it !

I'm not sure the car will get any shinier though.

No there all crap . Love the roads up north . In fact the road between Bedford and Santa pod was amazing ! Was late to meet shaun and dan in the morning of PVS and managed to shave 15 minutes off of our arrival times because the road was epic

Looks so damn good in its current guise, bloody good going for 18 months of ownership.

What's on the cards for 2013?
