I have a 'large' buffer polisher for polishing new paintwork but it is too big to get into some areas. Are there smaller ones available? I'm thinking about bulkheads, inside the boot etc etc.

 

Thanks

There are myriad small wheels available for the dremel. Try amazon?

 

I think B&Q and Wickes do their own version too.

you can buy a small air polisher i will have a look... (you will obviously need access to a compressor)

be careful these mini polishers arent orbital sanders, because i have tried to polish up lacquer with a foam head attachment and it doesnt work very well,

u really want something that will rotate and spin to polish not vibrate

Yep, tried it and it's very good, very pleased with the size, gives good access to the engine bay and boot.
