Just a quick review for the Guild Polisher - this is the Argos own brand name but I think it is also available under different names. I picked mine up from ebay for £40 but you can get them new for about £50 with 2 year guarantee.
The polisher is reasonably heavy which is OK for flat surfaces but a bit more noticeable on the vertical parts. It comes with a 6" backing plate and 7" pad so you may wish to invest another £30 or so in 5" and 3" plates and pads.
Using the polisher is very straight forward with a low speed for spreading the polish and higher speeds for buffing - although the cord is only 2m so some care is needed. The results were very good - the large pad provided a noticeably better finish than a hand polish and is quite quick. The smaller pads take a lot longer but the finish is even better - so you takes your choices.
At no time did the polisher seem out of control or grabby and soon instilled confidence in using it.
