Video Review: 4 Rotary Buffers

Here are 4 different brands of rotary buffers we offer on Autogeek.net, the Flex is a compact, lightweight rotary buffer while the other three fall into the full size category. All 4 of these rotary buffers are well-built, heavy duty tools that will provide you with years of trouble-free buffing.

Each one is a little different in the location of a few features like the variable speed dial, the size, shape, weight and very important to some, the sound or noise level they make under use.

So watch this video and you'll have a chance to see all four rotary buffers being used to remove the swirls out of one of my test panels and a chance to hear what they sound like at different RPM ranges.

Awesome review! Thanks Mike!

Just quick and simple so people can see the actual tools and what they look like and sound like. Also, I was practicing something for another project...


Always working on a new project...


Thanks though Shawn...

Yes. Have one on my video list.

Also for a lot of other topics,

• Surgical Buffing
• Wetsanding
• Dampsanding
• Buffing trashed paint with a rotary buffer
• Jeweling
• Measuring paint thickness
• All the tips and techniques I've been using and sharing on the forum for 10 years now...
• etc.

This one is actually 13 minutes long and was done in one take. If you watch I keep trying to throw the cord over my shoulder,

That's because it's a good habit I have and always show others for years now. Problem was, to prevent fumbling with cords, all the rotary buffers are plugged into a power cord and it's too hard to lift all the weight of the power strip and all the cords plugged into it.

Old habits die hard, next time I'll simply plug each polisher into it's own extension cord and then there won't be any problems and "good technique" will be used and shown.

Are you working on a mirror or is that a painted surface?! Great video as always!

These videos, (my Video List), are all going to be short videos that will go on YouTube and then the forum.

ohhh! okay! let me know when the videos are up! i'm anxious to watch them!

Good stuff!
I honestly recommend the DeWalt 849x, excellent price ($180), it's a lot lighter than the previous model, built to last a life time and quieter than the Makita.

Great tool that will make your scratch removal/compounding a LOT faster than with a DA.
