With a polishing machine, the car paint can be polished without great effort. Our partner “AllesBeste” took a closer look at ten devices. We show you the three best models from the test.
Regular polishing protects the car paint. It keeps the paintwork fresh, preserving the value of your car. However, anyone who has ever polished and waxed a vehicle by hand knows what physical exertion it is. A polishing machine makes the job much easier. Even minor scratches can be removed with the right polish.
There are basically two types of polishing machines: the eccentric and the rotary machine. Eccentric polishing machines are said to be more suitable for beginners. These move in a circle. As a result, the machine does not remain in the same place for too long and the risk of paint damage is minimized. The number of revolutions is lower here than with rotary machines. Rotary machines are more suitable for the more experienced. It moves in an elliptical shape. It removes a lot of paint in a short time and thus enables fast work with a high sanding effect. However, very high temperatures occur during work. There is a risk of removing too much paint. Ultimately, it is also a matter of taste which polishing machine you choose.
