Question: When was dual action polishing first used to shine paint? I know the cyclo has been around a long time but were they used for polishing metal?

Anybody know?

Was it:

Gem Industries' random orbital-innovation...back around the early 1960's?

Was it not a sanding tool before becoming a tool for polishing paint?

I just purchased a vintage dual action polisher. I have no idea how old it is. I am guessing from the 50s??
