Would like to thank Jay again for this amazing guide. I've always wanted to machine polish my car and get rid of the swirls/scratches but I've never had the courage to do it. After reading this I bit the bullet and bought a Das6 pro, some hex logic buffing pads, some Menzerna polish and a clay bar kit (well gifts from the other half and my brother :p).
Picked up a bonnet from the scrap yard to practice on and I was really surprised how easy I found it. I'll be doing my car ASAP as soon as we get a good couple of days.
Here's a few pics anyway :). Going to have another practice later.

And a couple of 50/50 shots after I'd finished.
