There is nothing I dislike about this kit. It has a nice long power lead, lots of extras and a nice sturdy tool bag to keep it all in. I tow a caravan and the front fiberglass panel has become dull. I’ve tried several products to restore the shine to no avail. This kit restored the shine without difficulty.
Great tool works perfectly easy to use and great value for money
This was really good value for the money and for all the extra stuff you get with it. It made my car look lovely but above speed 3 on it, the vibration does get a bit intense. I was able to get a good finish on my car by not really going above this speed though its not really an issue. Its a product I’m happy with and will keep.
Ace bit of kit you get all what you need to sta
A solid machine that came with lots of accessories (cutting, polishing and finishing pads in both 5″ and 6″ sizes, sanding discs, polishing mit, microfiber cloth, two small bottles of compound, a storage bag and a branded apron!).
I have never done any machine polishing before but after watching several YouTube videos I felt brave enough to give it a go. The machine worked perfectly and completely removed the scratch that had been annoying me.
Preparation is key, though. Thoroughly wash and clay the car before using the polisher.
Bought this long time ago but had a chance to use it just now. I always knew I will have to fix the rust on the rear wheel arch on my car. It grew massively after last winter After sanding, priming, base coat and clear coat (first time for me – never painted a car) I was left with a distinct line where the clear coat stopped by the masking tape. I did use a blender but there shouldn’t hace been a masking tape at all I now know how to avoid this but the polisher fixed it! I got 3000 grit and wet sanded the line on the panel. Then used cutting and polishing compound that I bought from a leading UK company and voil.. what a difference! A miracle.
Now I am forced to polish the whole car as you can clearly see the difference between the polished area and the rest.
Using the polisher was easy. Do not put too much pressure. Just glide. Use low rpm – I started on 1-2 and then went to 3 when I got a little braver. No need to rub too much on one place – just steady slow movement. Wipe the panel with the included glove and repeat if necessary. I have to say using polishing compound after cutting compound made a huge difference.
Anyway, I hope this helps someone in my boat and encourage them to try. The good thing about this kind of repair is if you are not happy you can alway sand off and redo it all. Good luck!
A brilliant piece of kit , bought this after reading the reviews, especially from the USA Amazon site. I have used rupes and plex in the past , great machines but nowhere near the value for money that I am getting from the SOTA machine, very well made , good balance and manageable weight , comes with an assortment of extras , pads , polish, bag , apron , I have just polished my car roof , and it’s come up perfect, used Meguiars compound and Koch chemie 3.02 finishing polish , the only negative is the grease used in the machine, I replaced it with white lithium grease , which makes the machine run smoother and quieter, I highly recommend this machine, as for durability only time will tell .
Works incredibly well. Excellent range of products accompanying the tool. Did cost me 2x resprayed and bumpers through as I applied too much pressure with cutting agent. So be careful when using. No hesitation in recommending, excellent!
Very easy to use. Comes with all the bits you need and much cheaper than getting a guy over to do it. Does a great job too
I like that this is a complete kit and has everything to get you started, well built and has a solid feel. Great piece of ki
Does exactly what you expect, great price and certainly freshened my paintwork blemishes up a treat. No more swirl marks !!
Easy to use and not too heavy like some reviews I’ve read. Did the whole car with a cut and polish and looked amazing!! All the little accessories included and the bag to store it all in are great. Can’t comment on the included pads as I wanted high quality ones so had already bought rupes ones to use.
For some reason there’s not any reviews on this for the uk, but in the U.S Amazon site there’s loads of great reviews , this machine is great and for the money it’s great value
