I have one of the 3” mini swirl killers for about a year now, the black one. It’s a tough little machine. Lots of hours on it no problems. It’s so handy use it more than I thought I would. It’s a must have and affordable, Change out the cheap Chinese grease. Keep the screws tight to keep it from leaking they don’t have gaskets. Great review.
So Adam's had there spring tent sale this morning, I waited in line for roughly 3 hours and got this polisher and the pressure washer 2.0 for a total of $185 before taxes! I can't wait to use it
So I received this polisher. I love the ergonomics, with the exception of the power switch. It’s HARD to click into place to turn on. Smooth and powerful. It’s less bulky than the previous version which I have. Satisfied.
Awesome polisher looks nice your right the trigger button I think it ill be nice on the bottom / the speed on the side but yea nice color 25ft is nice makes it easier I wonder if it's better than the new griots 123 combo gr3 buffer / also I wonder if the meguiars 3inch foam pads fit that so many opinions 😆 great video fab habe a great weekend my detailing friend take care stay safe
Edit: I’m talking about the red 15mm. Nice polisher as well. Very smooth with microfiber pads. A bit more vibration with foam pads, but not bad at all. Powerful.
Nice vid. I just purchased a n Adam's swiler killer polisher the older version 12mm long through. Have yet to use it, but looking forward to it. You have a merch store ??? Love to ge a couple of those hats. Black hat FAB in red Thanks.
Hello friend excellent review. Can I polish my entire vehicle with this polisher or would you only recommend it for small spaces? I am a begginer and just want to polish my cars. Thanks
Thinking about buying this for windows. Might be a good investment. I have the rupez polisher but I don’t feel like spending the 550 for the cordless mini. Jusr don’t see the value (YET) with what I’m doing in dumping that much in a 3” backing plate polisher
Nice video and review, I have the Adams swirl mini and it works great. If it ever goes out I will upgrade to the new one looks like an all round good polisher. Thanks for the great content bro.
Hi. I visited Adam's today in Colorado. I'm looking for my first polisher. They said this would be my best bet for my only polisher. At 3" I felt like a full compound/polish may take forever. They mentioned a 5 or 6" can't get everywhere, and this 3" could get in more places.... is this a good polisher for my first and only polisher fir a while? I also considered the Griots g9
We in the same situation Debating between adams and griots But you definitely need a smaller version for tight/odd areas Unless you willing to do by hand.
Is it basically necessary to have a 5” or 6” polisher and a mini polisher 3” or less? Seems like there’s always going to be some areas that the larger polisher won’t fit. Just trying to figure out if I should get 2 separate polishers or one that will support a 3”, 5”, and 6” backing plate.
You don’t have to have 2 separate polishers. You can buy backing plates for 3” that fit 5” polishers but you would have to change out every detail. Having separate polishers is a time saver and most 3 inch polishers are about half the size of a 5-6 inch polisher so you can get in those tighter areas.
Great review! I have the same issue with most 3" polishers, the trigger should be on the bottom or top. Also my Shinemate 3" leaks grease around tge front vents, not sure what that's all about. 👌👍
That's what makes the G8 the best compact on the market. Tons of power, no stall and great ergonomics. It's the only one I use anymore. Going to pick up a GR3 too.
I'm looking to buy this and at this point I'm gonna pull the trigger. I unfortunately had to turn down a customer for my mobile detailing business because the job obviously required a polisher and I haven't gotten one yet. I've been holding off like a noobie lol. Not making that mistake again tho lol I'm buying this today. I am gonna have to only use this for the whole car tho. I don't have the luxury of having all the different sizes just quite yet lol. I figured this size would be a good middle ground to be able to do a whole car. I have a question tho. I'm getting the kit from Adams with their compound and polish. Is this a good idea or would you use a different product for compound and polish? What are you using in the video? Seems to look good as a 1 step, which Adams also has..
It’s a good little polisher. It would take a lot of patience doing the entire car with it though but I understand you have to do what you have to do. I am using Turtle Wax 1 and Done compound in the video. It’s a great one step. Griots BOSS polishes are fantastic also.
I don’t understand why you make it a point to NOT compare it to the non-SK Pro 12 mm swirl killer polisher in the intro? If I’m in the market for one, would that not be important? Why is one better than the other? Pros, cons, etc... Just weird that you make a point of NOT comparing them, when you have, and have used the other polisher.
If it ain't stalling on the slightest curves, then it's definitely not made by the same company that did Griot's G8. I'm looking to replace my G8 and I might just go with this one.

How does this compare to the Griots G8?
Looks like a nice polisher. Nice video brother.
Thanks man!
Great 12mm polishers I have the 1st version super happy with it. Thanks for the video. 👍🏻👍🏻🇨🇦
You are welcome
My Camry has horrible paint swirls and scratches, saw this thing on Amazon in a kit for 300 dollars. Think I’ll go this route.
Thanks for the video.Planning to get the 12 mm help to get every surface of the car compare with the 15mm.
Great job,polisher and video. I have the regular mini swirl killer...it works well.

Appears to be a very efficient polisher. I have their 15 mm Swirl Killer DA polisher.
Edit: I’m talking about the red 15mm.
Nice polisher as well. Very smooth with microfiber pads. A bit more vibration with foam pads, but not bad at all. Powerful.

You could, but it is going to take you a LONG time and you are more likely to have inconsistent results…

It’s a good little polisher that won’t break the bank. Thanks for watching

Great video Brian, that looks like a great little polisher, it did a great job on the paint 👍👍👍👍
Thank you! I really liked it a lot.
Nice product review. Seems like you enjoyed using this one.
Thanks! Yea this was a very smooth machine
What kind of grease are to use when maintaining these machines?
Awesome review man!!
Looks like another winner!!
Definitely interested in this machine 👍🏻
Thank you!
Looks awesome! I have the previous version, but will be picking up this one very soon.
It’s such a smooth machine I was surprised.
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing looks powerful as well.
@@qwikss4469 yes it is
Definitely a nice unit! More than up to the task. Great review 👍
Thank you
Just for this! I love it! What kind of pad did you use or prefer?

I still gotta get a 3 inch polisher for the door jams and for bumpers
Great 👍👍video! Did you have to change the grease in gear head?
Great Video!! I Have A Question Which DA Polisher Do You Recommend For A Beginner Could it Be Used On Headlights?..🙂
Thanks! Depends on the size you are looking for. Yes it can be used on headlights
Nice informative video as always.
Thank you!
Great video buddy tfs
great video. job well done
Thank you!

How are the 15mm polishers from Adam’s? Are they worth buying?
I don’t have one so I can’t speak to how well they work. Sorry
Great review!
I have the same issue with most 3" polishers, the trigger should be on the bottom or top.
Also my Shinemate 3" leaks grease around tge front vents, not sure what that's all about.

Do you think I should have gotten the 15mm one? I will mainly be using to apply wax and do routine paint correction
@@b_nast19 Yes the 15mm would serve you better.
Nice review!
Thank you!
what wax did you use
Cool!!
I agree
Maybe it is the way it came across the video, but was it a bit noisy?
It’s not any louder then my other polishers. The way I edit to remove white noise it makes polishers sound funny.

Just weird that you make a point of NOT comparing them, when you have, and have used the other polisher.
Is a 3 polisher better than a larger one like a 7 or 9 inch?
They all have a place. The smaller ones are for smaller and tight areas as the bigger ones are for big panels.
This against g8 mini?
Maybe one day!
@@FABAutomotiveDetailing oh no. Which one you prefer?
@@Carlos.Rivera I used the G8 on a detail today and I can tell you this is a much smoother machine and also feels like it has more power then the G8.

Almost looks like a Griot polisher. Same color, back resting place, plug in cord. Maybe the same company that does Griot polishers.
I’m sure they come from the same place but I don’t know that for certain.
If it ain't stalling on the slightest curves, then it's definitely not made by the same company that did Griot's G8. I'm looking to replace my G8 and I might just go with this one.
