Frequently asked questions

Polisher and pad questions, short answers

What detailers ask us most often about throws, pads by colour, backing plates, microfibres and warranty.

Dual action or rotary?

A dual action (DA) spins and oscillates at the same time: no holograms and no burnt paint, so it is the everyday machine. A rotary (M1000, MB1200 Pro) only spins: it cuts much faster with wool and is the choice for sanding marks, heavy oxidation and gel coat, but needs an experienced hand and usually a refining pass with the DA afterwards.

Which pad with which compound?

The colour tells the function: green cuts, blue corrects swirls and medium scratches, yellow polishes and refines, red finishes and applies protection, orange AIO cuts and polishes in one step. Match pad and compound: cutting compound with green or blue, polish with yellow, finishing or wax with red. Wool for heavy cutting on the rotary.

Which thread do MaxShine polishers use?

The DAs (M8S V2, M8 Pro, M15 Pro, M21 Pro) use a 5/16"-24 thread, the DA standard. The rotaries (M1000, MB1200 Pro) use M14 or 5/8", depending on the version. The store plates are labelled by machine: Pro Series 6" for the M15 and M21, M8S series for the M8S V2 and M8 Pro, M14 for the rotaries.

Which microfibre for each step?

Drying: 1200 gsm Duo Twisted Loop or 1000 gsm Vortex. Removing polish, wax and sealant: 800 or 600 gsm plush, edgeless. Coatings and glass: 360 gsm carbon fibre, waffle or 300 gsm. Wheels, engine and dirty work: 330 gsm black. Wash in groups at 40 °C, no softener.

Does the cordless M0312 V2 replace a full-size polisher?

No: it is a complement. At 0.96 kg, 80 W and 1" to 3" pads, it polishes wheels, door handles, pillars, consoles and badges without a cable. For panels, a 15 or 21 mm DA. The included battery gives 35 to 45 minutes of continuous work.
