    Great job everyone. One favor though. Although the slow motion and fast motion may look cool, it doesn't help us at home. We are watching to see the speed that you are actually moving the machine around. We can't tell that if you keep showing slow motion/fast motion. Better to just keep it on real time speed. Thank you!

      Hey dude Ive been polishing cars for 20 years and when you do it in slow motion with this Da machine its to make the pad rotate only for renovating the paint with the right pad.And when you move it faster and more slightly its for polishing.

    Well explained. The slowest speed is actually one that gets the job done fast. I'm thinking that's more for the professional who is trying to make a living. The home guy would rather take his time - even though this dual action is supposed to prevent burning through, it still will burn through if you dwell too long in one area, because those machines go relatively fast.

    @jaimedpcaus1 Před 5 měsíci

    Excellent video. How much of the compound (in bottle) do you end-up using per full polish? One full bottle, 1/2 a bottle or more?
    Are there specific soaps/shampoos to use before the decontamination?
    This is a super video and I liked it so much! Does the product that's applied at the end have paint protection? If so, how long is the protection?
    So, the way I understood the overall application of the products is that you do the first application once a year. In the case of this car, the three products are used one after the other. Thereafter, you will only use the last two products twice per year and then after only the last product is used, correct?

    Just by noticing all the details you give shows how professional you are! I'm currently searching for ways to polish epoxy resin on a table project and I'm getting some ideas. The main idea as I understand is to apply a thick compound for sanding marks, and then a thinner to give it a gloss.

      No worries! Simply hover out any product from the pad whilst the machine is on the slowest speed. And the great thing is the pads and towels are machine washable! Just make sure you don't add any softeners.

    So much more comfortable now after watching this video. Just 1 question, I was gonna do a little paint touch up on my car's bonnet and my plan was to fill in the chips with the paint but I want the surface to be really with the rest of the paint but I don't want to wet sand as the car has a metallic finish and The thought of sanding paint terrifies me. Could I use a DA Polisher and the buffing compound to smooth out the filled-in chip?
