I just wanted to take a minute to thank you. I am a true beginner in the auto detailing world, and I'm a female in this male dominated industry. But your videos have truly been a great help to me. I've watched a few different KZreadrs, but you by far break it down to a simple level where is beginners can't go wrong. You're not long and drawn out but very knowledgeable, which is great. I can sense your humility, and I just wanted to say it is much appreciated. Keep up the amazing work!

Great reply Dani W ! Scott is truly a gentleman and is a fantastic teacher! Really appreciate Mr. Scott's style!

My favorite auto detailer. You keep it real and i credit you with most of my knowledge regarding auto detailing!

Thank you Scott for answering some questions and sharing your experience. I started with the Harbor Freight and several times have considered the Shurhold. Glad to know I was going in a good direction. Take care brother. Have a blessed day

Subbed. I love how straight up you are and have a great attitude towards business, detailing, and the community. Looking forward to watching your channel.

Scott is a real one. I'm still going through his videos even now and it's just straight honest experience

I just bought a new car and am excited so figured I'd find some videos on how to keep the car looking great and found your channel....I've literally been watching all your videos this past weekend..lol, keep up the great work!

Great advice! Love that you don't ask for anything from us. A simple man is your song, brother.👊🏾

I like how humble you are. Awesome, Bless you. Excellent vid.😎

Scott I've been watching your videos for a while you inspired me to do this myself love your videos keep up the good work

Love how you give so much info of your experiences & opinions about each product. Thanks for your time. 👍

You're the man Scott. You speak my language. While I love the other detailers they aren't just practical from a money stand point.

Scott you’re the Man. A real OG and doing your videos to legit help others and like you preached. Not to just thumbs up and subscribe. Thats the way that KZread use to be and still should be. Thanks for always keeping it real and for your help. Keep in Doing your thing

This is one of the best and most informative video on these polishers..

Im subscribing because I absolutely LOVED your honesty and your respect for everyone. You sir, are a diamond in the rough.

You have a GREAT channel and I watch ALL your videos and just wanted to say Thanks for you information Scott, it has helped me a lot!

I can not begin to tell you how helpful your videos are to me.

Scott!!! I love your videos sir. You keep it real and you are damn good at what you do. Stay on the scene sir.

Good to see you back Scott! Great info in the video.

Great video as always Once again you have hit the nail on the head with your honest views keep them coming

You are amazing! I love your video, very informative and thorough. For a new polisher enthusiast I enjoyed all the fun facts and your comparisons.

Scott have learned so much from you on detailing; thx for your honesty and what you do.

As always no BS from this guy. Can tend to go off on a tangent at times, but by far the most honest and informative on the internet.

After I heard you say that you're not going to ask me to subscribe, like, and/or comment, I did all of the above, because you're the first person that I've ever heard on KZread say that. It says a lot about your character. Honesty and humility is hard to come by these days... especially on social media. By the way, great video.

Love the video Scott. I own several GG6 units and several BOSS units. Love them for all the reasons you pointed out and find with a single washer mod that stalling is a non-issue for me. May look into a Shurhold if they make a 15mm. Keep up the great videos Scott. Love them!

Hello, Scott It's nice you did this video, It helps beginners get a cross view of these polishers. Good Job, Thanks

Love your videos! Very helpful and two years since you did this video. Great info and review of tools you use. I'm thinking about the Surehold 3500 - sounds like a great buy. Thanks again!

Scott thanks for taking your time to explain these machines really helpful to beginner's

I have the the Torq 10fx and it works perfect. Plenty of power and very well balanced. And also does very good paint correction. Love your videos my friend. Keep them coming..

Loved it. I was hoping for a video just like this. So much on the market to choose from and conflicting opinions makes my head hurt. Thanks Scott for the video

Great review. Thanks for straight opinion. I really like your style. Keep going with great reviews!

Literally just what I was looking for, THANK YOU for the reviews

Thanks for this video, I was getting mixed reviews about a 8mm throw machine, I am new to this and need a buffer to do my car or family members car maybe once every 3 months. I was aiming for the Torque 10FX. It’s an 8mm throw buffer. I’m glad to hear from a pro that with the right compounds I can get the same results as a higher mm throw machine.

Hey Scott! Another one down. I just subscribed this year, so I am playing catchup. Thanks for your efforts Sir.

Been watching your videos for a while. The amount of information you share with us is amazing. You can be a bit long winded at times, but that’s ok lol. You earned a new subscriber.

You advise is truly appreciated, I’m a detailer and as a pro you advise has save me time and money, I have to say you have become a true must follow Detailing Guru, I see you always talking about cars, what about boats ???? Will be great to get your expert advise on boats. Thank you again.

Thanks for the great info! Love that you included a Harbor Freight tool in the lineup!

Great video for everyone that needs your input on polishers that some are on the fence of buying a polisher

I'm just starting out and I would enjoy you explaining the difference and how you can tell between a "hard & soft" paint - Well done Sir!

Thanks for this! Really want to get into paint correction and polishing, but all these varying brands and prices just confused me. This video helped a lot! :)

I’m new at this but I really enjoyed your style and presentation. Thank you.

Thanks so much Scott! You have convinced me to replace my broken griots with a Harbor freight instead of another griots.

Scott, thanks. Hey listen........ it's 2020 now. I listen and you helped me save a bunch of money. You make a lot of sense and make a beginner feel relaxed making the right choice.

Thank you so much Scott love ya back. It's Ian from Alberta Canada.

Scott, recently purchased a 2009 Honda Accord coupe low milage from a dealership, loaded with swirl marks and light scratches, after watching most of your paint correction videos I purchased a Harbor Freight DA and Meguiar's d300 and d301 with microfiber pads and proceeded to buff and polish the car - using your videos as a guide - I owe you a big thank you - car turned out outstanding. Now have to dread the New England weather for a spell. THANK YOU - Your videos were invaluable!

I have a 2010 Honda Accord coupe BLACK and have been watching as many videos as I can to do the same. Trying to pick out what I need and technique to get started. I'm sure black paint requires special compound and polish and different touch. Anything you can share to help?

@jdisdetermined

cgasieni black paint polishes the same as any other color. It is just incredibly revealing of imperfections. I'd recommend starting out with something like the Chemical Guys correction kit, $50 gets you #32 heavy cut compound #34 medium compound #36 light cut polish and #38 finish polish. It's good to start with less aggressive products and work your way up until you get results. If you have heavy defects and deep scratches you may need a microfiber pad for strong cutting ability. Otherwise I'd recommend sticking with foam pads, just all around easier to use. Chemical Guys make a great foam kit. There are many other pad options, they are just what I prefer. I'd start with a mid level, less expensive but still capable DA. Meguiars MT-300, Porter Cable 7424XP, something in that range. If you catch the detail bug you can always upgrade to a high end DA and use the first one with a 3" plate and pads for tight areas. A 3" will come in very handy in some spots on almost any vehicle.. Have fun, it's addictive! These are my opinions based on my experience, others may differ.. =)

Agree completely with others, brilliant attitude down to earth and able to make things clear for people to understand how and why to use or not top channel Imo hope it goes well for you Scott

Excellent review. I was going to buy the Harbor Freight polisher but you sold me on the Shurhold 3500. Cheers mate!

I love your videos! I've had good luck with my Rupes 15mk1 and mk2 but after their totally anti consumer nonsense with the ibrid nano I've moved on from them. My flex pe14 is still my main hardcore correction workhorse but my rupes and HF da's get a ton of use as well! Your videos have saved me a ton of time and money so thank you!

Thanks for reviewing these! Great video.

I know it’s an old video but great info and you do a good job explaining things. I’m a new weekend warrior, I have subscribed, thank you sir.

Thank you sir. I am grateful for your transparency and the knowledge you shared. you got another sub 👍🏻

Detailed excellent illustration, great vid love you man God bless you thank you

Totally understand what you saying Scott from a Rupes user. Nice review by the way.

On top of being a fantastic host and spokesperson, your humility really speaks volumes about you as an individual; subscribed!

The info you put out is great so we will subscribe and give the thumbs up and thank you

Keep the good vids coming. I'll keep smashing the button. Thankyou.. seriously, thanks for the info u share.

I hardly watch anyone else's paint correction videos now. I trust you, man. And you take the time to answer me. I will promote your channel as much as I can.

As a weekend warrior, the Harbor Freight da polisher is all l need. Thanks for recommendation. It does the job.

Another great video. I am a twice a year 80 year old guy who just wants a good wax job, without spending too much, love your reviews..

Fantastic. Thanks for taking the time and sharing your experience and expertise. Very helpful. I’ve spent a lot time researching and didn’t really feel confident on any purchase. Now I have smart choices. You think you can do a short video demonstration on washer mod? And how or what to use to clean your pads after a polish. Thanks

Your videos are so good, thank you!

Thanks for another buffer review. I think it's time I graduate from my Porter Cable to a Torq 22D. I do wish these things would have memory settings so that I can go from spread speed to my preferred cutting speed without having to ramp up/down speed.

I completely agree with your statement regarding the HF 8" that its a fantastic tool for working your skillset. Start with it and it's only up from there. There is a good amount of vibration on it but I will say for beginners, get you a 3" and 5" backing plate and pads, grab a good compound and start practicing and honing your skills.

Awesome, I appreciate the honesty.

Great video. Lot of information. Bless you. Greetings from Sri Lanka

Abundance breeds gratitude, but more importantly gratitude breeds abundance. Great video!

I love watching your video. But this one hit home with me. I’m just starting out. So I have been doing research. Then I noticed the date it was posted. It was the day my mom passed away. Anyways thank you for your info.

I have been a collision technician for the last 45 years. I’m master certified in painting and structural. I’m getting back into the color sanding and buffing. Trying to figure out which tool will be the best. I didn’t realize how much the market has change when it comes to buffing and compounds. I have been using the rotary buffer for 40 years. I may buy the harbor freight with a 5 inch pad and see how I like it. Great video thank you

Good gosh, after watching this video and all those polishers lined up, it made me think I was looking at the local Golden Coral buffet. "Which item(s) do I pick tonight?" "Oh hell, i'm not on a diet, pick em all!" Scott is one of the most honest detailers on KZread. He tell's it straight whether it's a good review or bad one. Honesty is what I look for in a detailing video. Tell me if it's gonna be worth my dollars and cents as I don't have nothing to waste. I need a good value on a product that is EFFECTIVE. Scott seems to do that in his videos.

I have been running a Flex 3401 with a 5.5 inch backing plate. I like that Torx 22d thanx for the info Scott.

Torq has basically ZERO product support. This is why I chose Flex in the past and now a Rupes. Both have stellar product support!

Thanks for your great honest information. Blessings 🙌

Scott, great videos and very helpful. What would you suggest for someone looking to just polish and wax, maybe some minor swirl marks. Have fairly new cars that don’t need paint correction so I feel I don’t need anything fancy. HF? Shurhold? Other option? Thanks so much for taking the time to do reviews! Cheers

Thank you for the review! I would love to get my hands on a DA polisher… unfortunately, even the HF isn’t in my budget. It’s been a struggle the last couple years and I’m still trying to save up for one… hopefully I can find one second hand. Until then, I’ll keep hand polishing when I can. Have a great day!

Thanks for the insight I was unsure what sort of polisher to go for and your winner is one of the polishers I was actually looking at on eBay @£165 branded different but still the same so choice made

Hey Scott! Been following you for a few months now, and love all the information you give. Can you possibly do a video showing how to get small stains out of the interior cloth panels? Specificallya small spot of blood from a cut on a passengers arm? Thank you!

Very informative video. I am new to polishers. l will be looking into Griitos polisher.

Scott, great vid!

Man your videos are always the best!! Question: what's the difference between these handle style and the 2 handle circular style ones? Those are way cheaper and I'm torn which to get as a beginner.

Hey Scott do you think when you get some spare time could you do a video on paint pens and wether you recommend using them for paint correction and how you would use one if you were to do so. Thanks for all the great info in you're videos. Amazing knowledge.

Great video Scott!!!!

Yes... I'm having a great 2018. Thanks.

Awesome show with good insights. If I had to get just 1 of these removing sanding marks and paint correction, would you agree that I get The TORQ? I've heard lots of good things about it lately.

Great video! Thanks!! Random question... I thought I remember you mentioning in one of your videos that you use portable vacuums. Which ones do you use?

There are certainly a lot of choices. I’ll keep My Flex3401, and Cyclo. They never let Me down. I am going to try The Adams Mini Swirl Killer for hard to reach areas. Looking forward to trying that.

Nice review. I have a Meguiar's MT300 (non-pro use) which is a pretty good machine. It's significantly smoother, quieter and more powerful than my old Porter Cable, which now has a 3'' pad for tight areas. It's surprising that Rupes did not make more significant changes when they designed the Mark II units. The Mark I stalling issue was well known. The Mark II should've been a class leader. I've heard that they stall less often when using the Rupes pads. Unfortunately, I've never used a Rupes polisher, so I don't really know.

Scott, Among other great things , you know what I love about you`re videos? You don`t play that annoying music in the background. OK now I have a question, I just bought a 2018 F150 Ruby Red mmmm . Do they come from the dealer all buffed and waxed ? Thank you.

excellent advice from Everybody loves raymond :D

Thank you for being real!

Great honest review...new sub

Hello Scott thanks a lot for the video, it is very educational for the people like me that are just beginning to learn the appropriate techniques to machine detailing. And I have this question for you: The rotary buffer cuts time and helps the detailer to keep profitable...with that said, I don´t know why are so many experts on the internet that, rather than explain how to use the rotary they criticize and discourage the use of it. Why is every one talking about DAs and working them if as I can see the rotary buffer has very much potential to achieve the same results?

I love the torque 22 d just recently the digital dial has been acting up on me. It’s been starting on 1.5 but the speed is max. It will show 1.5 then speed up to 4.0 won’t go down. I have had it for little over year. Love it worthy the money a work horse

Great review as usual....... I would love to know what's your take on some of the mini da polishers on the market and do you have any in your arsenal or are u using a smaller backing plate on one of your polishers to tackle the more smaller intricate areas.

I use my harbor freight polisher sander to sand cars , i use a 6 inch backup pad. i have sanded many cars and like it because it is way less wear and tear on my expensive air compressor than an air powered one. i have had trouble with the bearings but have taken them apart and re greased them and they will go for a while longer

Hey Scott! Thanks for these great videos! I’m just starting and learning about paint correction and I ordered a Rotary Wen 7” inch plate. I thinking of replacing the back plate with a 5 inch hook land loop. I got this polisher because it’s what I can afford. Do you think it was a bad idea? Thoughts opinions??

Hi Scott Have you done any tests on the cordless polishers?? Please let me know. Thank you for all your help and efforts.

Hey Scott. New subscriber. Love your videos so far and have been watching getting ready for spring weather and some detailing. I watched your video on the groits vs the harbor freight polisher and heard you mention the harbor freight is better than the porter cable but what about the torq entry polisher at 129$. If your budget was is the 150 range would you go harbor freight w a good backing pad and spend the rest on pads, go w the groits which you mention stalls easily, or go w torq? I was personally thinking the torq but watching your videos you have me leaning back to the harbor freight which I was originally thinking of getting. I want to invest in something that will last and will get some good use on a few cars/trucks nothing extremely hard though

I stopped watching all the other auto & detailing channels to. Because I found watching to many different channels will just confuse you. Especially me who is just an enthusiast or a weekend warrior as you would say. Thx for all your great and honest advice 👍🏼
