I have a DAS-Pro. Have only ever used it a handful of times but it does the job. Just spent the weekend cleaning all my pads and cloths and towels. My Menzerma polishes arrives this week along with Iron X as I had ran out.

Rav
I am considering buying the DAS 6 Pro myself, but it is quite expensive. Can I ask if it makes that much difference to the look of the car, or is it just a labour saving device to save your arms from aching? thanks |

The difference a machine makes is fantastic. You can't really get a good cut by hand.

Also, the prep has to be right. Paint work has to be super clean before you even touch the bodywork with a polisher. So proper washing technique, then tar remover, also removing iron deposits and then claying it otherwise you will do more damage to the bodywork. Hope that helps.
