• 800W motor maintains speed during compounding and polishing
• Balanced housing and comfortable grip for extended use
• Variable speed control for precise adjustment by task

The 12-piece kit contains the TORQX polisher plus a selection of foam pads, polishes, a pad cleaner, pad conditioner and microfiber towels so you can start a multi-step correction process right away. Each pad and polish pairing is chosen to move from cutting to finishing without mismatches or wasted effort.
