Aldi Car Polisher

Post by pbar »

Aldi currently have a car polisher in for £39.99 which I keep thinking of buying. Been wondering about getting one of these for a while. Anyone have any experience of this one?

Looks very similar to the one I got off eBay but mine was a silver line brand, think it was £70 odd. Does make the paint come up nice.

Probably all made in the same factory and just get branded. Make sure there are extra bushes. I think mine is a silverline

Mine is a Rockwell ,dark green ( purest green ,that is ;) ) , :agree: probly all made in the same factory . One thing I have found with cheap stuff is that if you can be bothered pulling it to bits and putting enough decent grease in the gear box and bearings it will last twice as long....yep you could just get the whole car done :D

Aldi are usually quite good with that, their angle grinders for example have come with extra brushes.
