AVID POWER Dual Action Car Buffer Polisher, 6 Inch Orbital Polisher for Car Detailing with 6 Variable Speeds, Detachable Handle & 3 Polishing Pads

The AVID POWER Dual Action Car Buffer Polisher is a 6-inch orbital polisher explicitly designed for car detailing. It features six variable speed settings, a detachable handle, and three polishing pads, making it a comprehensive buffing system. I used this buffer on my car and was impressed with the results. The speed settings range from very low to high, allowing it to tackle tough imperfections and deliver a brilliant shine effectively. Assembling the product is straightforward, as all necessary tools are included in the package. The three polishing pads provided are versatile and suitable for addressing various issues. This buffer is user-friendly and performs well at any speed. Given its features and performance, it offers excellent value for the price. I highly recommend and rate this product a perfect ten out of ten.

If I were to recommend a product to a friend, the three things I will look for: 1. A good quality product. 2. Warranty 3. Customer Service This product far exceeded my expectations on all three of these which is very rare. I received the polisher, opened the box and I can tell it's a solid build. I used it on two of my cars and it worked like a champ. I used the pads that came along and didn't have a single issues with those. I can tell why this polisher has thousands of positive feedback from various customers. I opened the box, and got a card to register my product for 6 months additional warranty on top of 2 year warranty that it already came with. I registered it and now I have 2 and a half year warranty on it, which is not common even with many named brands. The customer service rep was friendly and within hours sent me a confirmation email for extra warranty. I was impressed with their service so far. Next day, I used it for the first time. During my first use I broke the handle on the polisher. This was due to mishandling on my end, and I couldn't use it anymore without it. I reached out to the customer service again to order the handle and pay for it as long as I receive the original part. To my surprise, the reply I got was they have shipped out a new handle to me without any charge. No questions asked and $0. 5 days later, I received the part in mail. I opened the box, and it turned out I was sent a wrong part. I was sent a pad base plate, instead of the handle that I needed. I reached out to their customer service again, offering to send the base plate back and ask them to send me the handle. They got back to me with another tracking number of handle that was shipped out at no charge without asking to return the base plate that was already sent to me. I am glad that I picked this product and already personally recommended to a lot of friends. There are some other similar polishers that look the same and are few bucks cheaper than this, but it worth paying a bit extra and have a piece of mind that this company will go out of its way to help you if you have any issue with their product.

I like the variable speed. I would prefer to turn off the orbital option and just use the straight polisher. However, the orbital sander will work well with wood working projects. Right now I am using it to clean and wax my 5th wheel. Started on it today. I have some pretty good wax build up on the surface. I am sure the build up of wax will give me problems. So far the cutting orange pad application pad gets dirty very fast and leaves some pretty good marks. After I applied the cleaner and the used the black pad which did not take off the streaks. I had to wipe those off with a clean rag. You can not apply any pressure because the motor bogs down very easy. I was using the top speed to buff with the black pad. I used the mid range 3 for applying the cleaner and wax. I don't think the rpms get near the 6400 or so at the top speed setting. The weight is decent for the size of polisher. I can hold it with one hand and hold onto the ladder with the other. The pad really adheres to the backing pad very nice. I thought maybe this would be a problem but so far it has not been an issue. It has an on and off switch. You can push the switch on and you don't have to press a hold button at the same time. The dial on the handle adjusts the rotation speed. I'll get more experience in using it as a polisher and also using the different pads. Maybe have to clean the pad very often. I think I saw one of the reviews where a person was using a cloth bonnet and he had to change the cloth bonnet very often because it became dirty very fast. This tool will really work well on my wood working projects especially the lathe. I will run this sander and run the lathe and it should really create a super smooth surface. It will take me a while to clean and wax the RV but don't have a whole lot of things pushing me since I am snowbirding in the South and need something to do rather than the mundane activities around the RV park.

Perfect weight and balance, the variable speed is amazing, it goes from gentle dual action to hold on baby with two hands. I use it on my vehicles, both Toyotas. IF you are up to speed on what colored pads do what when it comes you polishing and waxing (polishing for perfection, wax for protection) this devise is a must have if you are passionate about maintaining your vehicles paint job. You could spend more money, but then your just paying for the name. This does fantastic for the price, every week usage for 2 month, not a single problem. Also you can purchase on amazon different size diameter agitating heads if the 6 inch head is to much diameter.

I know it's very early to do a review as it only arrived today (September 30, 2023), but I put it straight to work. I spent close to 4 hours washing and compounding my 11 year old minivan, it was in pretty rough shape as it was never taken care of for 9 years and was gifted to me by my daughter after my car got destroyed by a tornado. After a lot of mechanical, body work and headlight restoration, getting the paintwork up together was the final stage. I did a fair bit of research on different random orbit polishers from different manufacturers and decided to give this one a try because of the good reviews on YouTube. I originally looked at the Porter Cable DA polisher but at almost 3 times the cost and 1/2 amp less power than this one, I decided against it. I have never used a random orbital polisher before so didn't want to spend a lot of money on something I didn't know that I would like and found this one was also on sale. I like that it comes with a spare set of brushes, 3 pads, 1 each for cutting, polishing and waxing, and they seem to be of decent quality. I used the orange cutting pad with Maguiars Ultimate Compound after washing, decontaminating and drying the paint. I also used a couple of squirts of water on the pad from time to time just to stop it from drying out and to keep it lubricated. The results were amazing as it removed 90% of the scratches and swirl marks and all of the oxidation, tomorrow I will use Maguiars Ultimate Polish to remove the last traces of scratches and swirl marks prior to waxing. The paint went from very rough to silky smooth with just the compound so I can't wait to see what happens when I finish it off tomorrow. The machine is very well balanced, low vibration, fairly quiet and has lots of power (5 Amp, 600 Watt) and I found that the sweet spot for compounding was at speed level 4. I tried to stall out the machine but couldn't even with a lot of pressure put on it, it just kept on spinning and oscillating. I found that I basically used the front handle just to guide the machine as the machine was very capable of doing all the work for me. I then washed the pad after I finished in warm water with a little Dawn dish detergent, attached it to a 5 inch drill mounted backing plate and spun all the excess water out and it came out like it was brand new again. My experience with this machine today has been nothing but positive and I found it very easy to use, this coming from a 62 year old man that says something. I will update in a month or so after I use it a few more times (weather permitting in Canada). Would I recommend it, so far yes. Update, October 7, 2023. I decided to give the van a follow up compound and polish but roughly 3/4 through doing my van the yellow pad separated from the backing cloth and shot down the driveway with the backing cloth still attached to the backing plate. Thankfully I was working on the sliding door so there was no weight on the pad from the machine (no damage to the paint), so I switched to the orange polishing pad to finish the job. After I finished I went wash the orange polishing pad and noticed that the backing cloth was separating from the pad. I contacted Avid Power directly (via email) and informed them of what had happened and their response was awesome. They appolagized for the issue and said they would send out replacement pads immediately and that I should have them on my doorstep in roughly 15 day's. They also informed me that once you register your DA polisher (which I did) the machine is covered under warranty for two years. This is customer service at it's finest and can't wait to get the new improved pads. I will update again when I receive the replacement pads. Update October 23, 2023. The new replacement pads arrived today (via expedited shipping) and they have put a hole through the center of two of the pads and it looks like they have changed the adhesive that holds the pad to the backing material, the orange pad looks the same as the original that came with the polisher. They kept to their word and this shows me the dedication to their warranty and customer service, thank you Zoey for all your help. I can definitely recommend this polisher to anyone who wants to clear up any paint defects and clean their vehicles paint.

It works really well. The only issue I had with it was that when I was about three quatres of the way doing my car, the polishing pad split on me. The Velcro part came off the pad which scratched my paint a little bit. I did manage to fix the paint but I had to go buy a better pad to finish the job.

Pads don’t fit to the machine! Any of the pads comes with machine, wrong size. Useless!

Great power , quality included pads , single speed only
