 A dual-action polisher kit for your dad

If your dad enjoys detailing his car with various tools, this polisher kit brings a big smile.

Why does a beginner-friendly DA polisher help your dad?

A professional detailer usually prefers using a fast rotary polisher, which generates more heat since it spins in a single circular motion.  However, a dual action provides two motions: oscillation and circular spin, generating less heat and the DA is safer on paint correction jobs. Furthermore, the short throw is more manageable than long throw polishers and suitable for correcting paints in a small area. Thus, the 8mm short throw oscillation works best for beginners.

A beginner-friendly dual action polisher provides 1000W motor power, an 8mm short throw range, and six(6) variable speed controls with balanced power for lowering vibration. The kid conveniently comes with Polish and protect compound, two(2) microfiber towels, and 5-inch high-profile cutting, polishing, and finishing pads.
