Easy to use and does a great job.Use it on my car occasionally to polish after cleaning.It’s easy to handle for my husband where I think it’s a bit heavy.But I guess that’s what they usually weight.You have to purchase the pads separately but that’s no big deal.Good polisher for your car cleaning projects

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.

Perfect present for him

This is a very nice polisher especially for the price. Its great for someone who is just starting out using polishers as it has an 8mm throw which can be easier to use. The pad is 5 inches which is a great all around size for vehicles. I really like the platypus handle design as it does make holding the unit more comfortable. The unit comes with a case to store the extras like the optional handle, etc. Youll want to get some pads for it as it doesnt come with any. A general use orange pad and a finer pad should be all that you need to start getting great results. It has 6 speeds to choose from and lets you choose in 1/2 step increments. Ive used it to polish as well as apply and spread a sealant and so far its been great. Its the perfect polisher for the DIYer while also being able to handle more professional work if needed. Ive used MaxShine polishers in the past and have had nothing but good luck with them. Im sure Ill have the same with this polisher.

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

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.

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.

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.

What can I say, made in China! I bought this because I like good tools and this had good reviews. Its a great tool, heavy enough and great ergonomics without the need to attach the handle. The speed control is the problem why my brand new tool quit. I am polishing a brand new paint job that has been color wet sanded with 1500 grit and buffed to a shine. I wanted the ultimate gloss so purchased the polisher and got through the trunk lid and was starting a quarter panel when the tool just stopped. Checked power and plugs and then discovered that the tool only ran set at full speed of #6 and I was only using #1, which did seem faster than it should be. Im taking a chance and getting the same tool again, it seems really good and hoping the speed wheel malfunction is a fluke. I have random orbit wood sanders with literally 30 years of service on them, dont understand why modern tools just dont hold up.

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.
