Review on ๐Ÿ”ต Maxshine M8S Blue Dual Action Polisher: 900W, 8mm Orbit Diameter Size by Chris Cruz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great entry-level burnisher, durable enough for frequent use

I am very glad I chose this machine based on a lot of research, reviews and videos. At first I only had a small project dealing with a horrible oxidation on my hood (thanks to the body shop who seemed to have used a poor quality clear coat). So I didn't have to spend a lot of money, especially since it may need to be repainted. I've combined this with the Chemical Guys Orange Buffing Pad Sample Kit which is a great deal and Meguiar's Ultimate Compound which is a very respectable retail product and safe to start with. Revain significantly lowers the quality of the video I uploaded, but hopefully you can tell from the video that it didn't cause any problems. The M8S is a very massive instrument, heavier than I expected and feels incredibly solid. At this price it's very, very good: currently only $10 more and a lot better than the new cheap Harbor Freight (the old one was good) and more powerful but cheaper than the popular Porter Cable model. Now that I have it, this polisher has become a solid kit that I'll probably use for part-time detailing. Durability will be the next thing I'll look at.
