Great tool, meets expectations.
Great tool. Gets a bit heavy with time, and it's a big large, but manageable. The only thing I would correct is the speed dial that tend to be on the way. But does an excellent job.

This KIT was perfect for fixing all my scratches - watch the Chemical Boys on UT on how to use!
I used this KIT to polish some scratches on my doors that I admittedly did myself when I tried to remove those road splatters you get after a long winter or TAR from new road coatings.- When I corrected the circular pattern scratches that I made accidentally, I did my whole car and all I have to say is WOW!!! My car looked like brand new, like those showroom pictures you see autotrader.- Make sure you watch the Chemical Guys Youtube videos on which polish abrasives to use and scale down once the scratches are gone. I learned a lot so I didn't ruin my enamel/paint.- The oscillating head worked perfectly with everything in the KIT with the lubricating spray's. Must Have!

Good Kit, But Some Room for Improvement
The Chemical Guys BUF 503X TORQX Random Orbital Polisher Kit offers a solid set of tools and products for car detailing. The polisher itself is easy to use, with a comfortable grip and decent power for most tasks. The included pads, polishes, and compounds work well for the most part, and the 8mm orbit size is good for achieving a smooth finish. However, I did notice some inconsistencies with the pads wearing out faster than expected. Also, the polisher could use a bit more power for more stubborn imperfections. It's a great kit for beginners or light use, but for professionals or more frequent users, it may not provide the durability and power needed for heavier-duty jobs.

Solid way to get into paint detailing
The 4oz bottles were perfectly enough for my XL crew cab truck and the results show if done properly.

You won't go wrong with this
For anyone that questions if this is worth the money, it definitely is, whether you detail for a living or someone still learning how. This kit has everything you need to make your car look cleannnnn. They even have a great video that shows you the basics to complete a whole detail. What's awesome about this polisher is that it has a built-in safety system to prevent you from burning your car.

Great for anyone! Long review and detailing instructions. *UPDATE*
This is a great polisher/buffer for anyone. It is one of the few products where it is extremely user friendly. This polisher/buffer (everyone calls it something different) lets a weekend warrior have the ability to look like a professional.This package comes with everything you see in the picture. The polisher/buffer, a 4 pack of sale compounds and polishes (4 oz), and 3 pads. This is a complete system that gives you the ability to fix most car imperfections. But it is not a miricale worker.You have to put in the time and have the correct technique to get great results. Even then there are some things you will not be able to correct. So before you think "I don't want to buy this cause someone said it didn't work", realize that there are limitations to any paint corrections. I will talk about it again in a little bit. But first back to the review.The unit itself is built very well. It is a very sturdy and well balanced machine. "What does he mean by well balanced?" What I'm referring to is that, even on the lowest setting, you can handle this machine with one hand.The pads are hook and loop (velcro) and are 5.5". This is somewhat an odd size that puts you in a situation where you have to find them online most of the time. But to be honest is is a happy medium. Each pad has their own uses. You need to make sure you are using the right one for each situation.The compounds are from Chemical Guys based out of California. Their products are probably some of the best that I have ever used. They are very user friendly and have a great smell. Yes I said great smell. If you are going to compound or polish your car its nice to have something that has a pleasant scent.So if you have read it this far and know how to compound or polish a car that's all that I have. Those of you who don't know what to do can read on if you want. This is a small tutorial and list of products you will need in order to get great results.1: Wash your car.This is the starting point to any body work. You should use only microfiber. *DO NOT USE TERRY CLOTHS OR HOUSEHOLD RAGS* These rags will hurt your paint and cause small scratches.2: Clay BarGet your favorite clay bar and clay your paint and glass. Periodically fold the clay over and knead it to get a clean/fresh side. Use a clay bar lube or quick detailer spray. Do small sections at a time and wipe off excess product when complete.3:IPAMix Isopropyl Alcohol and distilled water in a spray bottle (I would research to see what you are comfortable with). This will strip any wax, clay bar, or sealant that remains on the vehicle.4: Determine the work you need to do.Many people jump into this with a all or nothing attitude. What need to do is look at all of the scratches, water spots, bird dropings, and any other imperfections. From there you need to determine what is the minimum that can be used to take out the scratches. If you have a lot of paint correction with deepnscratches you should compound. If it is just water spot with a few scratches then you need to polish. This step, though, is to determine what you need to use.5:Compound/PolishCompound is more abrasive than Polish. With this in mind, depending on what you determined in the previous step, start with the least aggressive to get the job done. If it doesn't work to get all imperfections out then move up in the compounds (like 36 to a 38 in this kit). Once you get all the imperfections out that you can then move down to a polish and polish the entire vehicle.6: Apply a sealant.I used Jet Seal recently. I personally like it. A sealant basically protects you paint from contaminate like water spots, dirt, and bird droppings. Jet seal also make your paint surface hydrophobic which is pretty nice.7: Apply your favorite wax.You can use whatever wax you want. I personally like using a liquid wax. A liquid wax can be spread with a polisher with the correct pad. We are here to work smarter not harder.That's all there is to it really. Just note that not all imperfections will come out. On a neglected paint job I would expect to get out about 90% of the imperfections. Then there are some things that you can not remove with the products in this package. Deep scratches that are into the color coat or show metal will not come out with these products. Orange peel is another imperfection that you can not buff out completely. These two types of imperfections will either need to be wet sanded or the panel will have to be repainted.Do your research. Look up different techniques if you would like. But once you feel comfortable with what you know, compounding and polishing is easy. And this kit gives you nearly everything you need.*Tip* use a permenant marker to put a line on the backing paint. This will allow you to see if it is free spinning on the paint or not.**Update**I have used these 4oz bottles on 2 vehicles now and I still have product. These foam pads are great but I would invest in more if you can. These pads are great for the do it yourselfer but if you want to use these for a commercial purpose then you should get more pads. I have used my orange pad quite a bit as it is the one I use to get out most of the deep scratches. Honestly, if you were to get a better cutting pad you would be better off.The machine itself is still in great condition and I have not regreted buying this one bit.Update 06/13/21:... well I used this kit several times and loved using it. I say "loved" because someone broke into my garage and decided they wanted to take it. I used if for 5 years and have bought different compounds and pads. It held up very well and I still highly recommend it. Chemical guys products are still by far the best products to work with and I highly recommend them.
