ATD Tools 10511 Shop Polisher Review

I have had this item for about a year and am happy with it. It's loud and heavy, but for the price, it does the job perfectly. I also like the fact that the rotation speed can easily be increased or decreased depending on what you are trying to do with the item. Please do not base your impression of this product on the pads that come with this product. To use this item on cars (like me) you really need to order buffing pads and buffers (like Meguiar) to get the job done properly. I tried using…

Okay as many say it's going to be heavy but most bumpers are this size and weight. This is part of the machine. It is nice that it comes with both a rubber coating and a Velcro fastener. The set comes with a pillow made from natural sheep's wool. So its price for all this, it's good. I've just used it on a large RV project and it did the job perfectly with a very nice finish. He worked 4 hours straight on a very large area. Worth the investment. Seems to be durable, the Switch isn't cheap. The…

This tool is rubbish. DON'T WASTE TIME AND MONEY. Buy something that actually has a locking function or a wrench that actually WORKS. The wrench I received with it does nothing. Yes this polisher works and yes it has a powerful motor. Otherwise there is nothing good about this tool. Problem #1: The tool doesn't have a latch, so removing the pads is always a hassle if you can at all. Problem #2: The instructions say ANYTHING about changing pads or using the tools provided. Problem #3: The…

Sometimes I feel like people have expectations that aren't true. Like you, I always read "1" or "2" reviews to learn more about a product. I've read reviews that say this tool is rough, noisy, very hot, etc. It is based on an angle grinder! If you've never used or heard of an angle grinder, they are noisy and have gears in the power head to make a 90 degree bend. This tool has an excellent very smooth slow start and variable speed. It doesn't mean constant torque control, but it looks like it…

I first bought a porter cable but sent it back because it was so noisy. I then reluctantly bought the ATD based on the good reviews and how it looked like a good design from the photos. Unfortunately, I didn't know that ATD only rotates and does not have double effects (orbital). That probably also explains the price difference to a PC, since the quality is at least as good here. There are a few other things you should know that aren't explained anywhere - like what's included? Well, a bit of…

First of all I want to assure people that the assembly, while required, is absolutely minimal. The fact that some people here gave this car a bad review for not figuring out how to put it together just blows my mind. Let's put it this way, if you can't figure out how to attach the handle with the included Allen key and 2 screws, you've got nothing to do with this hardware. If you've used an angle grinder before, it's the same thing on a larger scale. I just wanted to reassure everyone that…
