And nothing else, only polishes, A rotary polisher spins like a grinder and only polishes where you are holding it so it gets very hot and its very easy to burn your paint off with no effort at all, a Dual action polisher oscillates so it spins and moves up, down, left and right so it does not just concentrate on the same point so it does not get hot enough to do any damage
If a rotary goes wrong you are repainting

And this is polish NOT WAX polish is a cutting compound that comes in various grades. The wax comes after polishing

I've always known a DA as being a Duck's butt or District Attourney, which I imagine would give quite different finishes

Preferably on the same weekend, though, as it would look odd being shiny on one side only.

Although I usually only clean it on the inside, as that doesn't get dirty again as soon as it rains.
