Re: Thoughts on Meguiar's Dual Action Polisher G3500
I would recommend you invest in an actual DA polisher. You will get better results that DAPS that you are asking about. -
Agree with Guz. DAPS is fine for smaller areas. If you are talking of doing a whole vehicle, the ergonomics are not there on the DAPS. A DA machine is well worth the investment. Almost fool proof. The first time I used one was on my daughter's brand new car.Comment

If you can afford it, get a proper DA, otherwise the DAPS is pretty good. Better than by hand
Also, try the M205 to start, but be prepared to step up to something more aggressive like UC if you want to remove swirls.Originally posted by BluelineComment

Re: Thoughts on Meguiar's Dual Action Polisher G3500
Agreed.
I got the DAPS + MF 3" cutting pads + M100 Mirror Glaze Pro speed and I was able to level out 3000 wetsand marks.
Mind you, I took it really easy on the 3K wetsanding (used as little pressure on the sanding block as I could).
But that combo will probably laugh out any swirls.
Good luck.
