Hi all

Could somebody give me any advice on car polishing machines please.

I have seen the one that Halfrords have for about £40 but is it any good?

It feels heavy and i remember being told years ago that if they are heavy you are knackerd after a short time from using it.

Can anybody recommend one please its for a Christmas present and will get some use so needs to be good.

Thanks all and Merry Christmas to you all

I have the Halfords one. It's ok but not really man enough.

It's not that heavy to use but after mopping a whole car I was quite tired. Probably my fitness levels more than anything.

Thanks guy's i will go and have a look at those.

Thankyou

I have one of those clarke ones too.
great bit of kit.

are any of these usable as angle grinders as well as sanders / polishers ?

A frind of mine has one like this and it works fine. It's not too heavy as you rest it on the bodywork and slide it round most of the time.
