Will a truck produce enough air for a small air polisher off the red line?
yep no prob aslong as u leave the engine ticking over
my trucks will run an air ratchet for removing the wheel nuts using an air line from the test point, not the red air line, won’t crack the nuts though, possibly the fault of the air ratchet not being big enough, so i would imagine that it would run a polisher easily enough 
the air system will also inflate a super single to 120PSI
as said though, leave the engine running to keep the pressure up
ideal, been using a battery drill with polishing mop for tanks and wheels but am forever charging batteries…

Is it difficult or could anybody do it? We have an air polisher type thing hanging about and ive wanted to have a go on this tank below because it wouldn’t come up very good by hand. 
Before
During
After
As you can see, better, but still not very good.
Any tips?
somewhere, i have got an air drill with the polishing mops for it, but not got round to using it as yet 
i will get round to it before the truck shows start though, just to see if it works easier than by hand

just buy my 
proper flexi drive polisher!!! but it is 3 phase what they use in the big world of polishing, but it isnt any good for the little arms of boys it would rip em off, only for big misters

you’re alright with it mate, from what i hear, you got plenty of weight you can put behind it 
will come to u then globby , as got 6 dirty alloys that need doing
only probs you have with a air drill, is it doesnt spin fast enough to get the soaps etc hot enough to work right you need a high speed drill or bench grinder to get the best results, air drill i guess are ok just to keep the shine at bay, or in tonys case when your milking the job and creaming it instead of doing work,sit there polishing the helmet

boss wont get dura , our air polisher does the job , will get it in workshop as soon they stop puttin salt on roads as the weeks are counting down to p’boro .
just a few of the mops i use have around 35~40 diffrent mops etc if you polish right you come out of the workshop singing mammy and looking like al johnson
