Dual Action Polisher for Car Detailing - MaxShine M8S V2 - Dual Action Polisher with 1000W Motor - 8mm Throw DA Polisher - 5-inch Backing Plate Orbital Polisher - Buffer Polisher for Car Detailing

I have five cars - and theyre mostly over 10 years old - so, along with the age comes some oxidation of the paint, just general weathering. So, Im watching a bunch of videos on how to restore the look and this is the solution that most of those experts gave - so I bit, got this MaxShine and Ive been very pleased. Even took away the oxidation on an old head light. Wish I had some before and after pictures to share, but get this, get a good set of polisher sponges (make sure they are the right size) and some polish - and go for it. Polished up some plastic chairs, too. Polisher is easy to use - attach the right grit sponge pad - and go for it!

I have been really pleased with this MaxShine polisher. It appears to be very well made, has quality feel to it, and is well balanced in your hand. It is heavy enough to apply light pressure under its own weight without being tempted to press the polisher into the surface but not so heavy as to become tiring to use over long periods of time. It comes with a detachable handle, but I tend leave it off as I have found it comfortable to use this polisher at any required angle without it. I have been using this polisher to apply sealants and waxes, but it has enough power to do light paint correction tasks too (although it is a bit too small for heavy paint correction). Overall, this is great, beginner friendly DA polisher that can also serve a seasoned car detailer/pro. I recommend it.

Wow, this Max shine polisher is definitely better than my previous one. The motor and handling for this polisher is excellent. It’s very ergonomic but it is on the heavier side. The construction is very robust and I have no doubt it will outlast the cars/SUVs I will own. The kit doesn’t come with any pads so plan to purchase some. With my older polishers, I’ve had to install Velcro in order to use different cutting and polishing pads but the MaxShine come with a disk that lets my current pads stick like glue. It seriously takes some effort to take them off which gives confidence that they won’t fly off when in use. Although it’s designed to be used with smaller pads, as you can see from the photos, I can easily use a 6in pad with no issues. The motor is strong and isn’t loud which is a plus. The only con is that it’s gets heavy while using it for a long period of time so if your working on an SUV or larger vehicle, I would advise to put on the included handle for extra support. Overall, this is great for any level of detailer. It’s a noticeable step up in its price category and I would definitely recommend.

This thing is great!! It is quite powerful, so if you don’t know what you’re doing, just be careful with the speed setting you select!!! Start slow and work your way up. If you start too high, you can easily damage your clear coat/gel coat. It has 6 speed settings, but there’s more than just that as you can select between any two speeds, it’s closer to 18 different speeds. It has great ergonomics…I really like the grip at the top. Very easy to use, once you know what you’re doing. Highly recommended…and it’s at a great price point!!

This is my first experience working with one of these polishers but it wasnt difficult to figure out and it made my older model car shine like new. My only issue is with how hot it got. It cut out and stopped working a few times, I presume from the heat, since it did start working again after it cooled down. I got burned from touching a hot spot, too, so Id definitely recommend using caution when using it. Also youll want to be careful where you put it when its hot like that. Dont place it on or near anything flammable.

I own 3 cars, 2 of them being on the older end that badly needed some headlight polish love, this took care of it in less than 10 minutes per car. Absolutely astounding and easy to use (this is my first polish tool ever, btw) - I took some counsel from professionals in the area and after seeing the tool I’m using, they started asking many questions and were impressed by its quality. I ended up polishing a few spots on my oldest vehicle (a tiny Red Honda) and thus treated it quite well! I workout out quite a lot and I don’t feel the weight of this polishing tool, but I could definitely see it being hard to use for long periods of time.

This is a good value for the set, the capabilities, features and buffer/waxing functions based on the sellers description. I have not used it yet and will update my review after its use.

This was a slow review, shipment from Amazon was super fast but Orbital Polisher arrived without polishing pads and I have to order a set of new pads to do a proper review. I’m new to detailing and In preparation for the big day of polishing/waxing my car, sons car, and my motorcycle, I spent a lot of time on YouTube and learning about polishers and different steps to do proper waxing. It was all worth waiting, the Dual Action Polisher M8S V2 is a monster, With a 1000w motor that feels like a heavy-duty professional machine that other pros are using. Solidly built and lots of power without any concern that the polisher will get hotter or stop working, It does everything as advertised. Worth a try if youre not a Polisher snob.

Great for beginners... easy to use. Great results in just a few uses on my car. Very happy!!

Im not sure why the other reviews for this product are about a sink, but we bought this orbital buffer to polish our competition grill and car. However, it does not come with any pads so we had to purchase those separately before using it. It works as described to polish the surface of vehicles (or grills) with ease.
