BATOCA S2 Upgrade 21V Cordless Car Polisher Buffer Sander Dual Action Car Polishing Machine with 2x Batteries 5inch Polishing Pads Polish Kit for Car Boat Floor Polishing Buffing 6 Speeds 2000-4500RPM : desertcart.co.uk: Automotive Review: Good solid product, and ideal for the job - Why did you choose this product over others?: Cordless and decent price Battery life: Battery life very good, l charged both batteries before I started and only used one battery, although it was very low on power having ran for about an hour, but note, to charge back to full power takes around 2.5 to 3hrs, so have both batteries fully charged before you commence. Polishing ability: Having applied the polishing compound with this machine, l could feel a marked difference in the smooth surface of my car’s paintwork, although I had completed a clay bar project prior to this polish, but did notice while applying the compound, the head of the machine did stop turning on occasions which l thought was strange as it is advertised as an orbital and not just a rotary. I also needed to change the polishing sponge towards the end of the process as it had torn away from the plate of the polishing head, but adequate spares in the box is a real bonus. Size: Good size to use and not heavy Functionality: Enjoyed using this polisher, never used one before, did the job well and can use with one hand. Value for money: Looked at all different car polishes, but really wanted the battery model so didn’t need to be concerned about a trailing power cable. Speed: Speed is also very good, with the LED screen showing your change of speed with the touch of a button. Review: Great polisher and good value for money - I've used this polisher on a few different cars now and have to say it does a good job. Obviously, the results you get depend on the condition of the paint in the first place, how well you've cleaned it etc but for the cars I've detailed, they've come up great with very minimal effort. One car I used it on was an old classic that had been re-painted about 15 years ago. The paint is good but had gone a bit flat due to the use of a car cover. Using some Maguires with the wool pad, and then again with the foam pad bought it up great. I did have to go over it 3 times with the wool pad, but that was to be expected. A most recent car I used it on was a daily-driven Landrover. I didn't do anything to this other than wash it really well before polishing. The results were very impressive with just one complete pass of the polisher. You get a lot of pads in the box - a mix of wool and foam - 2 batteries, a charger, a polishing cloth, some sanding discs (which are going nowhere near any cars I'm polishing) and the polisher itself. Compared to other polishers that cost a hell of a lot more, this polisher is fantastic value for money and does a really good job.
