Auto Finesse MPX DA Polisher & Revitalise System

The MPX Dual Action Car Polisher is a professional quality compact paint polishing tool ideal for targeting smaller areas and contoured panels with pinpoint accuracy… but with the added grunt needed to complete a whole vehicle!

Developed as the ultimate cost-effective, small-frame car polishing machine, the MPX has an 9mm orbit for intensive restoration and refinement of paintwork and is supplied complete with both 3 and 5-inch, hook-and-loop backing plates, designed to fit a full selection of polishing pads, including our Revitalise System V2 Pads, and Revitalise Spot Pads.

The choice of every detailing professional, machine polishing is the best way to restore paintwork and for the removal of common defects such as swirl marks, scratches, etching, holograms, water spots, oxidation and minor abrasions, refining paint to a flawless finish. Polishing your car is the number one cost-effective way of enhancing its appearance and increasing it value.

All paint correction processes use abrasive polishes and compounds to level down the top layer of clearcoat (or single stage topcoat) over and around the flaws, to the bottom of the deepest defect. Rather than removing the defect directly, this removes the entire area around it, until the defect simply disappears. Due to the way abrasive formulas are required to break down throughout this process, utilising a machine polisher will always be the quickest and most effective method of getting the most from your polishing product.

Through heat and physical friction, the abrasive particles in compounds are broken up as you work them through to create a finer and finer finish. On a microscopic level these particles are smashed together, breaking them up into smaller and smaller particles which cut the surface less and less, and start to refine more and more. This is what gives a compound its ‘range of cut'. This is also the reason it's important to fully work your compound through - usually indicated by the residue turning clear - for it to ‘finish down' properly and create the most refined surface possible with that particular abrasive. When using a machine polisher, working through this process is far quicker and more consistent than by hand, and that's why a machine is the choice of professionals – simply because you get amazing results. Machine polishers can also be used for the application of cleaner polishes, surface cleansers and paint Glazes, such as Tripple All-in-One Polish, Ultra Glaze Paint Glaze and Rejuvenate Paintwork Cleanser.

Our MPX Dual Action Car Polishing Machine is packing a powerful 600W motor and 6-stage adjustable speed settings (2000-6400rpm) this highly versatile machine features a slow, smooth startup and a soft grip body for easy, comfortable use. We’ve also included an extra-long cable to ensure no problems when completing higher portions of bodywork, like pillars and roofs.

Developed with increased safety in mind, our Dual Action Polishers - which also includes the full body DPX Dual Action Polisher – are capable of performing enhancements and multi-stage corrections without leaving a visible trail. These random orbital machines employ a free-floating spindle to promote pad rotation in two directions - both concentric circles from the head and a wider circulating motion from the spindle. This type of oscillation (sometimes known as the wobble) cuts down on premature heat build-up under the pad, a safety measure to prevent burning through paintwork. The 'throw' of a DA machine is simply how much oscillation it has off centre.

A DA will also stall (stop spinning the pad and simply vibrate) when too much pressure is applied, when the machine is on the edge of the pad, or if the machine is held at an uneven angle. This stalling makes a DA far safer to use than a rotary polisher, because it's almost impossible to accidentally burn through clearcoat or paint layers. An essential tool for both professional detailers and enthusiasts, these modern machines are capable of removing the same heavy defects as rotary polishers, but without the increased risk of damaging surfaces.

Our MPX machine polisher can be used with or without the supplied D-handle to offer the perfect, all-round polishing solution on any panel or paint type. For the very best results we’d recommend using your machine polisher in conjunction with our Swirl Spotter Detailing Light – the best tool for highlighting smaller defects as you work.

The Auto Finesse Revitalise System V2 Car Polishing Kit is a three-step machine polishing paint correction programme and the solution to perfecting your paintwork with professional-level results at home.

Developed in conjunction with our DPX Machine Polisher and MPX Dual Action Machine Polisher - specifically to make paint restoration, correction and refinement as straightforward as possible - this colour-coded system features three-grades of compound and foam machine polishing pads specially selected to work in harmony and revitalise any gloss paint finish, removing oxidation, holograms, water spots, etching and even swirl marks.

All paint correction processes use abrasive polishes and compounds to level down the top layer of clearcoat (or single stage topcoat) over and around any flaws, until they reach the bottom of the deepest defect. Rather than removing the defect directly, this takes away a microscopic layer of the entire area around it, until the defect simply disappears. This action has the effect of levelling out and smoothing the very top layer through mechanical abrasion, a process known as ‘cutting'. Polishes and compounds are available in various grades, which refers to the coarseness of the abrasive particles suspended in their solution. This is directly proportional to the amount of surface that the particular product is expected to take away, or its ‘level of cut'. A coarse polish or compound, like Revitalise No:3 Restoring Compound, has a higher level of cut, than a fine compound, because it cuts away more of the surface as it is used.

Also important is the aggressiveness of the machine polishing pads you use. Polishing pads come in various grades and the denser the foam used in their construction, the more these abrasive pads will cut the surface when used in conjunction with an abrasive compound. Harder, denser foam is used for cutting simply because it brings more abrasion, more surface contact, and with it more heat. Lighter, less dense foam pads will be more suited to paint refinement and finishing. The very reason we’ve colour coded our pads and compounds to ensure they make the perfect combination for each stage of cutting and refining. To learn more about about polishing pads, see our article - Polishing Pads: What You Need To Know.

Our three grades of Revitalise Compounds and Revitalise Foam Pads range from a coarse restoring compound and pad combo (orange), through to a medium polishing compound and pad combo (yellow), to a fine refining compound and pad combo (red), giving you the all the options needed to tackle everything from light oxidation to heavier scratches and swirl marks. Simply follow the 1-2-3 system, and you can’t go wrong.

Revitalise Compounds are for correction and refinement only, and contain no waxes or fillers, making this line-up the perfect choice for defect removal and refinement prior to application of any protection layer, including ceramic coatings.
