Out of all things in life, polishing the car is one of the worst. Does anyone use the above and are they worth it on terms of making the whole polishing experience much shorter?

Think the ex got it from halfrauds cost about £50. You can get cheaper ones but I hear they shake themselves apart

The Porter Cable 7424 dual action unit is the best polisher to go for - cheapies from the high street are fine for buffing, but crap for paint correction, and at some point down the line you will want to correct. There's a lot of threads in this section showing the results that can be achieved with the Porter Cable, some started by me, but also a lot by members who have invested and not looked back.

Cheers for the help. That porter thingy looks great but is way out of my budget.

In that case I would save the money and spend it on products that work well by hand instead.

Never trusted electric buffer . . Always used the micro fibre cloth or a good old fashioned (as I like to call it) buff muff!
