Before I go and buy one, does anyone around Melksham / Chippenham area have a machine polisher (something like an AC Delco ASR1210) that I could borrow for a few days?

I had a ten minute go with one this morning and the results were excellent but I really only need to use it the once so don't want to spend 200 notes unless I have to!

Beer tokens happily supplied if anyone has something similar that I could borrow?

Hmmm, I am miles away sadly but I do this as an extra profession from the day job in Devon. Very rewarding. smile

I've never used one before, but Dentpusher came to my place today and Steve had one on him that he let me have a go with, together with some 3M 50417 compound

I was stunned by how good the results were and if I can't scrounge one from somewhere to do the rest of the car with then I will buy one... amazing results in such a short time.. rewarding, as you say.

It becomes quite addictive. I was using 3M fast cut (not sure on the technical number) on a VW Passat today in black. Came up a peach! biggrin
