Hey guy's! Im wanting to get some stuff for my car but am not sure where to start. I need to purchase a good DA buffer and whatever else you guy's recommend for removing bad water etching and swirl marks. The swirls aren't too bad and look to be easily removed but the etching may be beyond my abilities at this point. Rubbing my hand down the side of my car I can't feel them but looking down the side they are noticeably bad. Maybe its just from the hard water. At this point I just want an entry level setup that may help until I get enough experience to try something more intermediate to fix them. I wanna order the DA,pads,waxes,polishes and whatever else I should need for a complete detail. Thanks alot. I will try to get some pics up of the correction needed.
