I got a 3" (75mm) for the twiddly bits around badges etc and it's great. Get a flexi one as it's kinder on the paintwork.

this is the cheapest place to get a das 6 pro!

using this discount code gets you Ł15 off aswell! DAS6GROUPBUY

i went for the pro as after doing a bit of research people were saying its better to pay a little more and get the pro over the standard das 6 as it has a more powerful motor and makes getting rid of swirls and scratches easier! and it has a much longer cable!

Ideal, how do you go out choosing pads etc, there are so many different opinions that's it gets a bit mind boggling!!?
