Complete rubbish Best in polish and polish pads

I have never used a shoe cleaner. I usually use an old t-shirt or rags so I decided to give it a try. It fits the drill well and polishes well, but I'm pretty sure it shouldn't fall apart. I polished my ostrich boots with full feathers and red fluff flew everywhere. When I finally got bored, I swept up some red fluff. Not worth the money

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Modern

Terrible, DO NOT BUY

worst quality product I have ever bought from Revain; took about 5 turns before it popped off the spindle and forced me to measure my rims with a plug. It turns out that there is a shank running top to bottom through the buffer which then screws into the mounting plug which only engages about 2 threads which is not enough to hold it securely.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • If in doubt

works, for polishing shoes with a BYOB drill. .

is suitable for polishing shoes with a BYOB drill. The paste was applied evenly with it. However, the pieces came loose at first, then stopped. I bought it not thinking I would use it more than once based on the reviews but have used it 3 times so far. Learned that to shine shoes you still have to do the final buffing by hand, but significantly less effort after the first use of the buffing ball.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Hard to tell if

Leaves a red felt on anything you try to polish

I bought this conical polishing ball to use on car wheels. The foam buffs I have have worn down over time and I figured this one would be more durable. I don't know if it's durable, but I can tell you it's awful. Everything you touch leaves a red felt pile behind. Thinking seems to be destroying itself. I tried using it on clear coated discs and red felt flew everywhere. Stopped using it, cleaned up the mess and decided I made a mistake with this purchase. Too bad it was just the right size.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Don't waste money!

Bought this to polish my black work boots. I attached it to my drill press, polished the toe of my boot and fired the buffer. During the first two turns, the buffer began to tear, leaving red threads on my boot and on the floor. I thought maybe I set the drill too fast. No, I slowed down and the buffer continued to fall apart. You can polish a bowling ball, but anything with a rib is no good. I would not recommend this poorly made buffer. When someone needs me, I try to pick the red fibers out…

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
