Random Orbital Buffer
Simplifying the decision process

As a rule when the subject of car buffers comes up, the random orbital buffer is widely accepted as the type of buffer being discussed or referred to.

Also known as DA or dual-action buffers, these important tools of the trade have long been referred to as the ultimate in safe car polishing for any true beginner.

These car buffers are designed to replicate the movements of your hand if  you were attempting to polish your car by hand -a method I do not recommend as it proves so ineffective compared to using one of the random orbital buffers I recommend from this page.

These dual-action (two moving patterns) buffers are also designed with one gear driven movement and one "floating" head that allows this head to stop spinning if too much pressure is applied.

The floating head makes these dual-cation buffers super safe, thus making them also the perfect tool for beginners to start with.

But...

"Darren, I find myself chasing my tail trying to figure out the best car buffer for me. The many car forums are filled with endless opinions and I can't seem to make a decision!"

You are not alone!

Trust me when I say choosing the best random orbital buffer is not an easy choice for most people; far too many opinions from too many people. Never mind an industry that is constantly adding more and more choices to an already complicated subject.

Random Orbital Buffer:
Keeping it simple

While I could bury you with about 20 different options of a random orbital buffer, from basic, entry level to over-priced, name brand orbital buffers, I am going to simplify the moment down to one of my favorite choices when shopping for a top rated dual-action, random orbital car buffer:

Maxshine M15 Pro Series II DA Dual Action Polisher, 1000W

• One of the actual random orbital polishers I use professionally
• Winning balance of performance, features, and cost
• A random orbital buffer that brings quality without over-paying for a traditional name brand car buffer
• Amazing power and ergonomics
  

Random Orbital Buffer:
Car Polishing Kit

While I prefer the buffer from above over the buffer contained in this car buffing kit here, the reality is that you cannot polish your car with a buffer alone.

You are gonna need additional tools and products to actually do want you are looking to do and that is to polish your car.

I am uncertain as to why more companies don't bundle their buffers with all the necessary items to actually do the polishing; but they just don't.

Which is why I have included this car polishing kit from Chemical Guys so you can make this process simpler, not more complicated.

• A Car polishing kit that includes most of what you need to actually polish your car
  
• A top rated car polishing kit ideally suited for the home hobbyist or car  owner -this means is is perfect for a true beginner
  

Polishing with the Random Orbital Buffer

Today is a world of information overload. And most of you are not equipped to deal with so much information, never mind the slick marketing and advertising that goes with it.

The fact that you are so interested in taking your car's appearance to the next level by choosing a top rated car polisher makes you even more susceptible to the seductive nature of slick marketing and advertising!

Many of you reading this are already on this slippery slope of reading review after review about how to polish your car, the best random orbital buffer, the best car polishes, etc., etc.

With that said, let me lay out some hard facts for you that should help  you manage your analysis paralysis:

• Car polishing is something you do occasionally -and by occasionally, I mean very infrequently
• The "perfect" random orbital buffer doesn't actually exists since in many ways it is a choice based on your personal preferences -this means what I might consider to be the best will be based on different features than what a true beginner would consider the best features
  
• The reality is that what you really want is shinier paint, not really the best car buffer -you just know you need a car buffer in order to produce shinier paint
• Most guys will spend days, weeks, or months shopping for the best car buffer there is, only to end up using it so few times, they wonder why they over-thought the moment to begin with
• The goal is to get you started sooner so you can get shiny paint and then as you move forward, you can decide if you need to invest additional time, energy, and money into that next greatest car buffer

Darren's Professional Tips:

This kit contains most things needed to polish your car to a level that will make you the envy of the neighborhood! With that said, I strongly recommend you take the time by using detailing clay to prepare the paint surface properly by decontaminating it first.

This is necessary for a truly silky paint surface and will allow your polishing efforts to be maximized by allowing you to polish a contaminant free paint surface.

You can shop a clay bar kit to decontaminate your paint prior to any polishing for maximum results.

Pay It Forward!

Thank you for visiting random orbital buffer review!

I bet you know of at least one other person who could benefit from the information I have taken the time to lay out here on the pages of this website. This could be your family, friends, car forum, car club, or any of your social networks you are part of. Spreading the word helps me just as I have hopefully helped you!

Thank you in advance!

Sincerely,

Darren Priest
