Poliermaschinen
Es gibt hauptsächlich zwei Arten von Poliermaschinen: Rotationspoliermaschinen (Rotationspoliermaschinen) und Dual-Action-Poliermaschinen (DA), auch Exzenterpoliermaschinen genannt. Rotationspolierer haben eine feste Rotationsbewegung und sind für ihre kraftvolle Polierleistung bekannt, ideal zum Entfernen tiefer Kratzer und Schönheitsfehler, erfordern aber auch etwas mehr Übung und Erfahrung. Dual-Action-Polierer verfügen sowohl über eine rotierende als auch eine orbitale Bewegung, was ihre Verwendung sicherer macht und weniger dazu führt, dass Wirbelspuren und Überhitzung auf der Lackoberfläche entstehen.

Polisher - air or electric/battery, which is best?
The choice between air and electric/battery powered polishers depends on your specific needs:
Air-powered polishers: They are often lighter and more compact, making them ideal for detailed work. However, they require a compressor, which can be an additional cost and require more maintenance.
Battery-powered polishing machines: The development of these machines has progressed rapidly, and today they are undoubtedly the first choice among our customers. They provide the same performance and their versatility makes them easier to use as they only require a charged battery. Battery-powered models also offer more freedom of movement.
Ultimately, the choice depends on your preferences and needs. For most hobbyists and professionals, an electric or battery powered polisher is often the most practical and versatile choice.
