I never hear anyone talk about those orbital polishers (I think thats what they're called). I was wondering why. I used one on my old Civic and everyone had thought I got a new paint job.

I was thinking of getting a one (the last one I used I had borrowed) but wondering what kind would be a good one to get.

....what about using one along with Zaino?

 

I used an orbital polisher just once after Zaino-ing my S. It worked fine, but our car is so small that it really doesn't take longer to do it by hand using really good 100% cotton towels--which, IMHO, is a better alternative. My $.02.

 

I'm really buying it for the Accord and my moms Lexus Rx300, but since I'm getting on I thought I might try it on the S.

Any suggestions on which one to get?

 

i use a random orbital... porter cable makes it (actually is a sander)-
use it to apply zaino, remove zaino, and any other product that i am using on the whole car. sometimes i just carnuba the top surfaces and dont use the machine for that (p21s i think its called).
the machine applies, removes, and buffs perfectly.

not where i got mine, but here is info on it:

the pads are the important part... those i do get from that site.
