Got one of the aldi ones today, they had plenty in stock at 3 o'clock.

 

Too wet to try it out but it seems pretty decent quality.

By the way the above item that I posted is now discontinued until a new model with variable speed comes out. Thought I'd better post an update just in case. Dont want to disappoint anyone.

What you have to remember is that nearly all of these inexpensive polishers are just rotary ones, and as such you can do a lot of damage with them if you are not careful.

 

Where the PC7424 scores is that it is a random orbital polisher with a large throw, which mimics the way that you would polish manually. As is has quite a large throw the amount of time spent on any one spot is minimised compared to a normal orbital polisher, and therefore is is virtually impossible to burn the paint.

I would of thought a good orbital used properly would be better anf more 'random' than doing it by hand, only on large areas though, they're no good at corners/crevices

Good point. The person who comes up with a patent for one that can do that will become very rich.

That's the down side of them, but on balance I think they are worth having.
