Default Recommend me a DA with compounds polishes etc

Hi all can anyone recommend me a da with a set of polishes cutting compounds for a saphire black astra vxr . Got a da in mind off cyc but can anyone recommend me something more precise for my colour. Always polished by hand and want to start with a machine. And yes i do have a few test panels.

DA wont do any damage so there is no need for test panels. I use 3m pads or lake country with meneza polishes, Black hole wax would be decent or purple haze. I use supernatural or zymol though. If any advice needed you are more than welcome to come here and ill show you how to use and you can use mine

Without a doubt, the best pads I have used for DA are the Hexlogic series from Chemical Guys.
