Machine Polish
I am not a detailing whore so I just need a nice and simple machine polisher to make life easier and have spotted this... http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/s...Id_165640#dtab
Yay or nay for a detailing noob who just likes having a clean car not a CLEAN car

I've got an electric pollisher and i never use it. The vibrations make your arms go numb after a while, and when your buffing if you get 1 tiny drop of water on the cloth it will just smeer pollish everywhere. Also it will force polish into gaps that you'll never get it out of.
Not worth the money imo, and you'll probably get a better finish by hand

its just a buffer its not going to remove swirls thats for sure, for taking off wax and polish then yes
but you can buff with a rotary or pc by putting a bonnet on it
