Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After ordering and reading reviews and other things posted online about 10 inch random orbit polishers, I was pretty certain that I was going to end up returning this and have to buy something stronger and more expensive for what I was wanting to do (remove swirls and light scratches). I figured I would try this though because I really didn't want to spend alot of money on a dual action polisher and the pads for DA polishers are around 6 inches and didn't want to spend 3 days doing our 3 trucks. For $30 this was a great purchase and glad I tried it. I was not able to get out a few deeper scratches, but it did get rid of swirl marks and light scratches. Unlike what some other posters said, this machine does not stop spinning when you put some weight on it. It does slow down, but I was able to put most of my weight into it and it would still spin. The bonnets that came with it are pretty bad and didn't even bother using them. I bought a few microfiber and foam bonnets for a few bucks each from Walmart, as well as Meguiars Ultimate Compound, polish, and wax. I was able to get out all the swirl marks with the Ultimate Compound on a microfiber bonnet after only a few minutes on each panel. I attached a before and after photo in the photo section. Could maybe get some of the deeper scratches with something more abrasive than ultimate compound on maybe a wool bonnet and may give that a try that next time to get a few of the deeper scratches I didn't get the first time through. Also make waxing a breeze. I waxed my truck in probably about a third of the time it normally takes me. Performs great and seems to be well built, and overall I'm very satisfied with the purchase.
