Machine Polisher

[ph 7]

I can't remember if I mentioned this on here but someone drove down the side of my Wifes Passat a few weeks back scratching 3 panels, denting the rear arch and cracking the rear bumper.

 

The cost of repair outways the cost of the vehicle which means I'm going to go DIY on its ass.

 

I'm going to attempt to pull the dent form the wheel arch and polish out some of the scratches if I can. Just to make it look a tiny bit better.

 

 

As such I'm after a cheap & nasty or a cheap & fantastic machine polisher.......the emphasis is on the cheap.

 

 

If anyone has one taking up space on a shelf or have replaced an old one near the end of it's life with a new one then i'm your man^!

Where are you based? I don't have one for sale but you're welcome to come and use mine

West mids, but given that I've never used one before I'd be worried about damaging your pads!

Don't worry about that. I'm in Huntingdon if you're interested.

Last year my stepdad lost a ladder from his roof rack, straight down across the bonnet. We managed to get those out

That's very kind of you. I think I should post a picture to see what you think is achievable. I'll sort one tomorrow.

Ok

I meant to the op

I'd take either but I'm guessing I'd be safer with a DA. In the same way i'd trust myself more with a bow saw than a chainsaw

Kestrel DAS6 is pretty cheap.

Lidl had a cheap orbital polisher in the other day. May be worth a look

Mark, drop Kev (KC350Z) a PM, he's got one and I'm sure he'll give you a hand using it
