I purchased a used one as the piece is a bit pricey, but the machine ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxG6fbm3cHBd7CNTjk5D-dwYe9c9tCB9ZN has surpassed my expectations. We sand small parts by hand often, sized around 1"x1/2," and specifically look for a piece that's designed to be vertical. The motor has plenty of torque and great speed settings. The only inconvenience I had is that the disk measures 5" where we trim 6" stick-and-sand disks down easily by mounting it then cutting with a box cutter.
No-load speed: 7,500 - 12,000 rpm Isn't that too much for car polishing? Specialized polishers have it lower than 3000rpms usually. Anybody knows what's the minimum here "under load"?
I have this at home. It doesn't spin, it vibrates. If it does spin, place your hands on the pad and it'll stop spinning, but the machine will continue to vibrate. I use it to polish my cymbals.
It does both,when polishing with an orbital the idea is to not lean too hard to allow the polisher to spin while also orbiting,if your using this to sand or polish,and it's just vibrating,your using too much pressure between the polisher/sander and the object your using it on,hope this helps
this doesn't look like 7000 rpm to me, but i agree if it is too high. it it nice alternative, i would be more concerns about underpower (i think it's somewhere in 300-400W range).
I've just tried it as well as I happened to have a random orbital sander but it definitely doesn't work as well as a dedicated polisher, it just vibrates and doesn't spin much especially when you apply some pressure.
That's normal, they are freewheeling, it's an orbital polisher, it orbits and due to the oribiting action the pad starts to rotate but as you say stops spinning, if the speed of the machine is adjustable try increasing the speed, this is how the dual action polishers which car detailers use work the same as orbital polishers but with a speed dial, even a basic static speed orbital polisher is far better than doing it by hand, imagine moving your hand in orbital circles 2500 to 3500 times a minute ?? you see machine is always better.
I was wondering if I could use a palmheld RO sander instead of the more expensive two-hand 90-degree ones. Well, I want to thank you for justifying my recent $20 Harbor Freight purchase.
Looks a bit lame. A dedicated dual action polisher is what you are trying to imitate - using a tool meant for sanding timber. It will be too fast. It will stop spinning but continue to make motion similar to a detail sander used for woodwork. If you get enough power to keep it spinning, it will be at too high a speed.
I have my own unit at home. Have tried this but it’s not satisfying and not effective. Since it does vibrate while rotating, it will not do the polishing well. It will only serves the purpose for sanding. Hopefully nobody will buy this just to polish their cars
The title says it is a sander but this video is how to polish your car and it isn't even a good car polishing video. Please leave reviewing products to someone else.

Same with polisher dual action?
Like 👍. У меня такая же нужно попробовать полирнуть Toyota Corolla 2019.
Can we use Sander machine as polishing machine? any difference between them ?
So, this sander has such a low power, that in low speed it throttles down to a speed of a polisher?

@@andybussa1323 I actually use a dedicated DA now. I use the Orbital sander to just do sanding now.
Well, it sure looks to be spinning in the video...
@@lilystrong9870
Which machine Dual Action are you use?
@@andybussa1323
Try Bosch FET or Makita P8 6000 - they has forced rotation
Bosch GEX 125-1 AE provides a minimum speed of 7000rpm. are you sure you can use such speed for polishing the car body?
this doesn't look like 7000 rpm to me, but i agree if it is too high. it it nice alternative, i would be more concerns about underpower (i think it's somewhere in 300-400W range).
i have same but metabo the rpm is slow some time stop spining
That doesnt look like 7000rpm at all.. my da polisher that only do 5000rpm max seem spinning more than 5 times faster than this.
7000rpm motor. The disc is orbiting, not spinning. Much less movement.
Donde consigo el accesorio?

When you are polishing you are not supposed to apply pressure anyway.
What size is this machine
I was wondering if I could use a palmheld RO sander instead of the more expensive two-hand 90-degree ones.

is it a Dual-action machine?
No
Yes
Maybe
Kinda

А шо так можно было??? Я думал для полировки авто нужно покупать полировочную машинку
оказывается можно))
I thought this was for woodwork and not cars
Just woodwork? This would-work on cars too.
me too, not recomended for cars
Ok

hi, does it spin or just vibrate?, thanks
@@juanjuan-ng9ys it is random. Its spin and vibrate
@@juanjuan-ng9ys Think of it as a free spin, if excessive force is applied it stops spinning but keeps vibrating.
