Review on πŸš— MAXXT 5 inch Dual Action Car Buffer Polisher - Orbital Variable Speed Machine for Car Detailing and Waxing with 6 inch Foam Pad by Tai Wiest

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High quality long stroke polishing machine.

I have no complaints. I've only used it on three cars so far so can't say how long it will last but it works great. Even with significant downforce, the car never stopped. I changed a few things: first I cleaned and filled the stock grease with high temp synthetic and also swapped the baseplate for a 5 inch Torq22d. I also used a slightly longer bolt, since the original with the torque plate only snapped a few threads I used an M8-1.25x22mm. I was very pleased to see that the internal bearings are sealed, the spline seams are perfect and I have minimal vibration with the 5 inch pad. It has an adjustable counterweight, but I didn't even have to touch it. I really don't think a lube change was necessary but for the money I thought it would come with inferior lube and not packed very well but to my surprise it was full and well packed. I'm pretty sure the internals are exactly the same as the long haul in port (not a bad thing, especially since it's even cheaper than Bauer's on offer) if you want to know more about long-term reliability.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Something different
