Random Orbital polishers
Random Orbital polisher: the perfect choice for beginners and car detailers
Random Orbital polishers are the excellent choice for anyone who wants to shine car paint! Because the polisher is eccentrically rotary, it can be safely used by beginners and professional car detailers and car enthusiasts alike. By polishing with an eccentric machine, you remove scratches on the car and restore dull paint to its original luster whereby it regains depth and color. As specialists, we explain to you everything you need to know about these devices. Would you like to buy a random orbital polisher?

What does a random orbital polisher do?
A random orbital polisher makes a combined motion where the disc both rotates and deflects. This deflection is called an eccentric motion. Because of the eccentric rotating stroke, the polisher's disc never moves constantly over the same point. This prevents overheating. By polishing with an eccentric machine, you are guaranteed to work safely and not have to worry about burning the paint of your car, motorcycle or boat. This makes an eccentric rotary polisher ideal for beginners as well as professional car detailers and demanding DIYers striving for a radiant paint job.
Difference between rotary and random orbital polishers
There is a big difference between rotary and random orbital polishers. Are you unsure which polisher is best for you? Then it's good to know the difference. A rotary machine spins only in one fixed circular motion. This creates a lot of heat and allows you to polish deeper into the paint to perform more correction. This is particularly useful for serious paint defects, very deep scratches and extremely dull or weathered car paint. An eccentric polisher, on the other hand, is safer to use. Because during polishing the disc both rotates and makes a turn, less heat is generated, preventing you from burning the paint. This immediately minimizes the chance of paint damage. This makes this polisher the perfect choice for beginners and car detailers.
Why choose a random orbital polisher?
There are several advantages to a random orbital polisher. The reasons to choose one are:
- User-friendly: even if you have less experience, you can get started safely.
- No risk of burning paint: the eccentric motion prevents overheating.
- Perfect for removing scratches, swirls and holograms.
- Ideal to use after rotary polishing for a mirror shine.

Is a Dual Action Polisher eccentric?
Yes, a Dual Action Polisher is eccentric. The term "Dual Action" refers to the dual motion the machine makes: rotary and eccentric. This combined motion during polishing ensures that the pad is never constantly rotating at one point. This prevents overheating and paint burns. The difference between a DAP Polisher and Eccentric is only the name. In the auto detailing industry the English term is often used. In practice, both terms mean exactly the same type of polisher. Do you see "Dual Action Polisher", "DAP Polisher" or "Eccentric Polisher"? Then you know it's the same, safe and user-friendly device with which you can polish any car paint like new.
With which outcome eccentric polishing?
When choosing an eccentric or Dual Action polisher, the polishing pad travel is an important factor. This offset is measured in millimeters and determines how much surface area you are polishing per stroke. The most common eccentric stroke is 15mm. This is the ideal balance of power, control and versatility. With a 15mm travel, you can safely and effectively polish virtually any painted surface, such as cars, motorcycles, rims or even furniture. Therefore, this type of machine is perfect for universal use, both for beginners and professionals.
Do you want to polish larger surfaces faster? Then a machine with 21mm travel, also called a long-throw polisher, is a smart choice. Thanks to the larger travel, you achieve faster results on large surfaces because you hit more paint surface per stroke. This makes a 21mm Dual Action polisher ideal for large cars such as SUVs, RVs, boats and caravans.
Briefly:
- Polisher 15mm eccentric stroke: all-round, control, precision
- Polisher 21mm eccentric stroke: speed: large surfaces, efficiency
