    Torq 10FX polisher

    I have seen a lot of love for the GG polishers and also the Flex.
    But I cannot find any mentions for the Torq polishers.
    I was thinking of getting a Torq 10fx(Rupes are out of my budget).
    Any feedback on those?

    I'd get this for $10 more:

    Rupes LHR 15ES Big Foot Random Orbital Polisher, rupes bigfoot, rupes car polisher

    Or save some money and get this if you like the "rotary" style:

    Meguiars MT300 Dual Action Polisher

    In Canada, the gap in price between the two is like 250$, not just 10$ unfortunately.

    Oh, sorry, I didn't realize. That on/off speed control would drive me crazy on that Torq polisher.

    I actually think that it is a neat feature. But then again, I haven't use a lot of polishers besides the PC.

    Having to run up through the speed range every time you turn the polisher on? That's like your TV volume going down to zero every time you turn it off.

    True but don't you have to spread the polish at the lowest setting every time anyway?

    What if you stop for a second to swat a fly, sip your drink, wipe a portion of a panel, etc.

    A lot of us routinely use polishers with a trigger, so you can feather it to spread polish without changing the speed.

    I liked my torqfx, it was light and smooth but do yourself a favor save up and buy griots boss 15 or 21, awesome machine,cuts time in half and super smooth.
