da polishers

You won't burn through with a da, unless you keep it in the same place with a lot of pressure.

Continuous movement is always the correct way.

Thats for a da or rotary.
 
You get rid of the swirls / scratches by taking the level down to the swirl / scratch or they are not removed. It would be magic otherwise!

Of course.

You can only correct so much.

Best to check all panels for thickness before deciding what you want to do.

I'd like to wet sand the whole car and start from scratch.

Will have to learn how to do this on a scrap panel.

(or the rover boot lid)

I feel confident to wet sand the whole rover this year.

Will have a go on the boot first.

I've got a 9" Dewalt grinder I use for cutting bricks..

If I stick a tesco value sponge on the disc will that be ok :-\
 
wetsanding isnt as scary as people make out. ive wetsanded a couple of areas back on both my z3 and other cars. As long as you keep things wet and use gentle but constant pressure (ohh matron) you cant go far wrong. If your removing with a DA you might want to go to 4000 grit as 2000 is a bugger to remove.

Thanks,

I've got some 2500 and 3000 grit.

I think its best to use a sanding block to maintain even pressure.
 
Just got a text off liam.

All this talk of wet sanding is giving him the horn :ymsmug:
