In my younger days I had a Black Datsun 240KGT the only way I didn't mark it was to clean it in the late evening but would still rinse in cold water to take heat away

First time with da polisher, I was scared of it. Dont know what I was expecting, no instructions, just orange pads, white pads, black pads with raised bumps on and will pads. Used the orange to polish and the black to apply glaze.
Just did rear bumber and back hatch, washed, clayed, polished, pre wax cleanser, glaze then wax.
Dont look that bad in poor light, will see tomorrow, rest to get done.
Is plastic any different to metal, different pads or anything? Any tips, still rather apprehensive about doing rest.Usual Elite specification;Dancing lights, up/down windows, sliding seats, on board atlas, slippery seats, musical bumpers, storm detectors, tubeless radio, female knight rider communication system, all seeing windscreen, cherry air freshener, auto moaning passengers, learner driver, shiny door pins, rear boom box, Heko smoked window hats, rear window sunglasses, 10 million candle flame reversing lights, matching number plate lights, shiny pedals, front and rear all seeing eyes, fully integrated interrogation system, empty bank account .

I'm fooked ,
Eight hours and still didn't get final coat of wax on. Not sure about DA polisher, well unit itself is good, it's me or the pads or my polish, took 2 passes out of the 6 on each section just to remove water spots. A lot more imperfections in paint than I thought also.
Front bumber let's it down, full of little stone chips.
Hard to tell fromdark photos but am pleased with it, just not sure if worth the work, it will rain soon .
