Chemical Guys TORQX Random Orbital Polisher Complete Car Detailing Kit - Pads, Pad Cleaner, Conditioner & Towels, Safe for Cars, Trucks, SUVs, Motorcycles & More, 700W 8mm Throw - 12-Piece

Very good towels for polishing and for cleaning. They are as advertised you won't be disappointed.

I almost never write reviews. OK, so I was clay bar-ing, hand polishing and hand waxing my wife's car, and my pickup was next in line. About 15 minutes into polishing, my right shoulder began to ache...just like it always does at some point in these processes. I'm an old man. I started looking into machine buffers on Amazon, and came across this item (but at $163.79!). Knowing very little about pads, I was really impressed by the bundle here...5 different pads, a super-flexible 5" backing plate, and pad cleaner and pad conditioner (lubricant). It just seemed like everything I needed to get started (except compound and wax, which I already had). Upon arrival, the first thing I did was use the kit to remove swirls and water spots from my black pickup. The TorqX and supplies were very easy to use, and performed very well. The results to me were spectacular. After cleaning as directed, the pads I used showed absolutely no signs of wear and are ready to go again. I would highly recommend this kit. I note however that at its current $200.00 price point there are IMHO more attractive kits available out there. Chemical Guys need to put their bundling hats back on and sweeted this deal some, as I suspect more people will be drawn to the Porter-Cable kit. How about some one or two car size samples of some othe Chemical Guys products tossed in?

Great Polisher! Even better with accessories

I did touch-up work with a spray-can clear coat, which left half the body of my ride with shades and roughness even though I covered half the body with masking paper (spray mist finds every tiny space to pass through). I then sanded with 3M Trizact 3000 and 5000 only to get hologram. Did a bit of research and ended up getting this kit. The kit contains everything EXCEPT polishing compound, so I bought a V36 & V38 combo. I watched x2 vids by CG before starting as I am a beginner in detailing. It took me a day to get the hang of using the dual action polisher. The biggest challenge was how much pressure to add, and the Asian guy (I'm an Asian too so no racial bias meant) in one of the CG's vids explained it as "push just enough to hear the change in the motor sound". This was a great tip. For a DIYer, this kit is of a great value for the money. Everything except the polisher is made in the USA (the polisher is probably made in China; no country of origin was noted on the label). I only used the orange & white pads, and after 2 days of experimenting & learning, all holograms were gone and my 2004 TL (G516P) now looks shiny. It is not possible to remove 100% of micro swirl or take care of heavily weathered paint, but the result is more than satisfactory. There are 2 minuses, however. You need a household power and the polisher is LOUD at full speed, loud enough to irritate your neighbors (like chain saw). Ideally, this should be done in an enclosed & clean garage but I did this under direct sun light at 80F; not recommended. If you are serious about your ride and tired of paying hundreds of $$$ for a professional or additional scratches/damage by careless professionals, grab this kit and CG's V36 & V38 compound. Again, if you are a beginner like me, be sure to watch CG's vids a few times before starting and wear hearing protection. BTW, the kit comes with a spare brush kit for the motor.

Works amazing, very good price, makes my job easier!

Tried it the first day I got, and it does just what it said it would do. Would buy again used it 3 times so far and it works great. No complaints

Excellent

Waxing a car is one thing and machine polishing/cutting has been intimidating not fully knowing how and messing up paint of any my vehicles till now. My truck was hit in an intersection after insurance part then getting into shop for them to document damage they gave me the go ahead to polish it since they are out four months to get it in. Product came as described, also bought the full sized set of four CG finish and cutting compound since this kit did not have it. There is another kit that has smaller sizes but NOT all the pads and that was key for my job at hand. Machine was easy to use, ergonomic, and pads attached with hook and loop. I recommend for first timers the CG have some great videos out there. Familiarize yourself and understand your top coat, using cutting compounds and why. Swirl marks and removal. If you have BLACK PAINT you best be very careful it’s the toughest out there!!! Overall you can see in the photos I attached before and after. I am ECSTATIC how well CG system worked following the process, working in shaded area, and taking your time. Highly recommend. I feel confident now to detail the entire truck and make it shine!!!! THANK YOU CHEMICAL GUYS! Customer for life!

After hesitating for years and tons of research I finally bought this polisher. Kit came as advertised, easy to set up and start using. Chemical Guys provide lots of tutorials and instructions. I was very impressed and thoroughly satisfied with the polisher. The results removing the swirls on my car were amazing. Improvements on the paint were immediate and so satisfying. The polisher is not too heavy, speed settings are good, the velcro attachments held solidly, the pads are top quality and the VSS swirl remover worked remarkably well. I finished off with Chemical guys Black Pearl and Jet seal. It looks like a professional job. This car is now 1000% better looking than when I picked it up new. ( I won't rant about my terrible experience picking up my new car that came with swirls, dirty mats etc. The stealerships did such a poor job of PDI and prep - it was just discusting ) Now it looks like it should have! Every hour, I go out to look at how beautiful the car looks. Chemical Guys are my go to car detaining company.

Each time I loaded the pad it would not start for a few minutes. When working it was going ok and did a reasonable job. Low rating due to not starting up when I need it to..

Esta herramienta es una excelente opción para quien gusta de tener su auto impecable. Segura para cualquier principiante, con resultados cercanos a los de un profesional, algo que jamas lograrías trabajando a mano. Se debe considerar que es bastante ruidosa, yo uso audífonos mientras pulo para evitar dañar mis oídos. La opción de usar pads de 5" o 3" sin cambiar el contrapeso, es lo que me hizo decidirme por esta marca, el de 5" viene incluido, pero es muy recomendable comprar el de 3" para usarlo en lugares deducidos. Estoy muy satisfecho con la compra, sólo espero que me dure bastante, incluye carbones de remplazo, que espero no necesitar pronto.

Nunca llegó pero si me rembolzaron mi dinero y sin ningún problema por lo tanto del producto como tal no puedo opinar

Orded this kit as it was unavailable on there site. received and the conditioner bottle was empty.Contacted them and got zero support or help will never purchase there stuff again Make the switch to ADAMS products instead give them a try .Very poor customer service!!!!
