Mini Polishers
Mini Polishers
Mini paint polishers lets you get into tight areas. A mini polisher is small in size, lightweight and fits comfortably in the hand. A mini buffer can be used to get into tight corners after using large buffer and knocking out the majority of the polishing. At CROP, we stock an extensive range of high quality small polishers from brands such as RUPES, FLEX and Milwaukee.
Mini Rotary Polisher
Rotary buffers are drastically different in the way they work compared to Mini DA Polishers. Mini rotary polishers are very straightforward – the head spins on a single axis in a regular circular motion. This causes heat and friction to build up allowing the user to perform paint correction processes. Mini rotary buffers will remove marks in paintwork that dual action polishers cannot. Because the rotary buffer is a direct driven machine, it can do a lot of work. A rotary buffer has the ability and the power to remove a lot of paint off the surface very quickly.
Mini DA Polisher
If you like to be more cautious or want a polisher that will be a bit more safe in those detail areas than you may want to invest in a DA (dual action) polisher. This mini polisher has comfort and safety in mind. Mini dual action polishing machines (or DA Polishers) spin in two different ways: the head spins in a concentric circular action on a spindle which in turn spins in a wider circulating motion. This creates a “wobble” which prevents excess heat and friction build up, but still allows enough such that light to moderate paintwork blemishes can be removed. Dual action polishers are lightweight and easy to control on both horizontal panels and vertical panels. You can use them to remove swirls, polish car paint to a high gloss, apply a wax or paint sealant and even use them to remove the wax or paint sealant after it has dried. DA is the perfect choice for amateur enthusiast!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best polisher?
What is the best polisher is different for each user. For some, a dual action polisher is the best, whereas others find a rotary polisher best for repairing deep scratches and damaged or dull paintwork.
How does a polisher work?
A polisher works electrically, battery-powered or pneumatically. A polisher is powered by a motor that provides power and torque. Thereby, a polisher works with a polishing pad and polishing compound that you can use to polish paint and a car.
What materials can you polish with our machines?
There are different materials you can polish with our machines. The most common materials you will polish is car paint, gelcoat, polyester, plastic and other types of paint.
What is a rotary polisher?
A rotary polisher is a device whose pad spins. Because of his movement, a rotary polisher creates more heat with which you can remove deep scratches on the car and restore dull paint to original high gloss.
What is an orbital polisher?
An orbital polisher is the best polisher for beginner, car enthusiast and professional car detailer. With a dual action polisher, the pad spins on two axis. With this system, the polishing pad rotates both around and on its own axis, creating a “shake” movement while polishing.
Which polisher for beginners?
As a beginner, you want to know which polisher is suitable for you. We recommend an orbital polisher. A dual action polisher is safe to use by anyone who wants to start polishing. With an eccentric polisher you can, as a beginner, remove scratches on a car and polish paintwork back to a shine that makes it even more beautiful than brand new.
Can you use a polisher to sand as well?
Unfortunately, you cannot sand with a polisher the way you can with a sander. To sand, the recommendation is to use an orbital sander. However, an orbital polisher is sometimes used for wet sanding of car paint and clear coat.
Which polishing compound to use?
Which polishing compound to use depends on the result you want. Use a coarse polish to polish deep scratches in a paintwork and restore dull car paint, a medium polish to remove superficial scratches, swirls and holograms and a finishing polish to give a car paint shine and depth.
What speed should I use for polishing?
The speed you need to polish depends on the result you want to achieve. If you start polishing at a low speed, you will have a higher paint correction. If you start polishing at higher speeds, you will bring the paint to maximum gloss, depth and reflection.
