Cordless DA Polisher recommendations
Discussion
Recommendations for a cordless Dual Action car polisher needed please.
I know very little about the subject, so any pointers happily received.
Currently have Dewalt stuff and so looked at this as I have a few batteries, but seems expensive and maybe not as good as more specific car brands? -

Also what pads / polishing discs to match?

I've have the dewalt DWP848N, probably total overkill for my needs but like you I had the batteries and wanted a cordless polisher.
It does use the standard 5" pads, I bought a set of 3 chemical guys hex logic pads of differing grades with pad cleaner (this is very good!) for about £40. I use it with Farcela G3 and G10 compounds and G3 wax.
Only downside is it's a fairly heavy unit, you'll want 2 5 amp batteries to keep going all day. One will be charged by the time you flatten the other.
Very pleased I bought it, cordless was definitely the right decision, made light work of polishing a big twin axle caravan.
Thanks for that, very helpful. Just about to purchase.It does use the standard 5" pads, I bought a set of 3 chemical guys hex logic pads of differing grades with pad cleaner (this is very good!) for about £40. I use it with Farcela G3 and G10 compounds and G3 wax.

I was looking at the Meguiars pads / solutions as they seem to be simple to match from the guides they have.
Where / what grade pads did you get from CG? Did you do 2 or 3 steps?
I’m absolutely clueless at the moment, so just trying to piece all the info.
