yeah about that... i recently bought a DA polisher for my car. i used it to detail the swirls out of my Z and my lady's volkswagen. Would this be ok to use on a new fresh paint job with rattle can? using a cutting pad instead of the OP's polisher brush?

sorry to thread jack, just wondering if this is possible?

Polisher brush?

I'm sure you could use a DA but I'm just doing it by hand for less chance of burning through. I'd buy a DA and do it if I did the whole car at once.

I did, now undoing and painting.

I'm not! But hence the panel at a time. I'm good for about 2hrs then I quit and my arms tired.

Thanks. And I know haha. It was a old one just sitting around I needed for the pic.
