Autogeek is a bad site.

I always lose 2-3 hours at a time when I get looking through it.

I'm thinking about one of those myself. I have a cheaper Craftsman that is...OK but can really do more harm then good especially when I compound.

I only use Adams product and I agree you need to learn the technique's on how to polish your car. Adams has alot of videos and how to. Also they said you cant make white shine take a look at this.

Same here! I saved up for quite a while before I got my DA.

I also recommend the foam pads. Lake Country Pads are the best IMO
