Hello guys, got myself a blue VW scirocco recently and just wanted to buy a machine polish, one that I won't damage the car with being a noob at it. Any recommendations? Also I have no idea with all the discs and whatnot.
Also any detailing tips? I've got the turtlewax gloss (something) wax. Any specific wax I should look to buy for the blue ?
Thanks

Re: Polishing tips?
I got into detailing about two years ago. Started with a DAS6 PRO. If you watch enough videos and get the idea you really can't go wrong 
if it is the light blue it comes up awesome after a detail too. Did my mates lupo not too long ago for stanced UK. If you want links to some guides and offers PM me.

Hey! It can be a curse once you get into detailing.. so be warned 
I'd suggest a full decontamination first.. then polishing with a DA and apply a good wax to seal it

Welcome !
Watch the Junkman on YouTube - he'll break it all down for you
The U.K. Version of the Porter Cable is the Das6 Pro - pretty easy to use
Like everything else in life it's best to research and understand what your getting into but a hex logic orange pad with Megs 105 and a hex logic white pad with Megs 205 will get you properly started

+1 for the DAS6 pro.
Ive used one for years, its almost impossible to go wrong with it!

use this guide from detailing world and you cannot go wrong.
a DA (Dual Action) polisher is a good starter polisher as its much safer than a rotary which can burn through the paint very quick.
