The Karate Kid 2.0 is our entry level random orbital polisher designed from the ground up. Featuring an 8mm throw with a standard 5” backing pad, this polisher is perfect for correcting and polishing. The M8 female screw on the shaft of the polisher also provides the flexibility to mount other backing plates.
Dual action random orbital polisher rotates through the momentum created by the high speed orbital motion. As there is no direct link between the rotations and orbit, this makes dual action random orbital polishers the safest tools to use for beginners but also enables effective paint correction.
Please note that 2 spare carbon brushes are included.

Menzerna Medium Cut Polish 2400 is the ‘medium’ polish is our 3 step Menzerna system. This excellent polish is designed to remove compounding marks, fine scratches and light to medium oxidation. Unlike older style compounds this polish is non-gritty and smooth cutting.
This Menzerna Polish has been designed to remove up to 2500 grit sanding marks, and is suggested for use with Light Cutting or Polishing Pads. Ideally this polish is used after Menzerna Fast Gloss FG400 or on cars that have light to medium paint imperfections that need polishing out. This can also be used as a single set for some vehicle paints due to the amazing finishing properties in this formula.
The Menzerna OEM range are designed for most paint finishes including solid colour, regular clear coat and CeramiClear (e.g. late model Mercedes, and Porsche).
Best results are achieved by using with a rotary or random orbital polisher. All Menzerna polishes have excellent lubricating properties so do not need water to keep them working, simply work the polish by multiple passes to break down abrasive clusters and then wipe away the thin residue with a clean microfibre cloth.
For even further depth and definition to the paint, especially on dark colours you can follow on with Menzerna Super Finish 3500.
Menzerna Polishes do not contain fillers, silicones, waxes or other glazes and are Paint Shop friendly.

Menzerna Super Finish 3500 is the ‘finest’ polish is our 3 step Menzerna system. This fine polish has been formulated to eliminate fine imperfections such as very light swirls, light holograms.
This polish is designed to remove light polishing marks, buffer trails or holograms and is suggested for use with jeweller's polishing Pads such as our German Foam polishing pads. Ideally this polish is used after Menzerna Medium Cut Polish 2400 or Fast Gloss 400 to fully refine the paintwork finish, eliminating any fine imperfections and boosting gloss levels and depth within the paint, ready for a wax or sealant to protect.
The Menzerna OEM range are designed for most paint finishes including solid colour, regular clear coat and CeramiClear (e.g. late model Mercedes and BMW). Best results are achieved by using with a rotary or random orbital polisher. All Menzerna polishes have excellent lubricating properties so do not need water to keep them working, simply work the polish by multiple passes to break down abrasive clusters and then wipe away the thin residue with a clean microfibre cloth like our AmazeBuff microfibre towel.

Please note: as with all polishes best results are achieved once the surface has been prepared correctly (washed / clayed etc). Areas should be clean, dry and cool – it is advisable to work undercover or in shade, however with good light.

The AmazeBuff microfibre towel comes from the friendly part of Korea.
The extra long piles enable it to capture more product in each fibre and is perfect for the removal of excess wax and detailing product from the surface of your car without saturating quickly.
It is quite simply best in class and will cut down on your detailing time significantly whilst providing that glossy streak-free finish with minimal repeating strokes.
Towel dimensions: 40cm x 40cm
Factors are based 1 lowest (gloss /cut) to 10 highest (gloss/cut)
Our quality high pack German foam pads are the best you can find on the market.
The 6 inch Yellow polishing pad has a medium density foam suited for slight to medium paint correction. It is used after cutting to remove heavy swirl marks created when cutting.
The 6 inch White finishing pad is ideal for the application of fine jewelling type finishing polishes after general polishing to bring through that gloss and new car shine.
Fantastic kit had everything I needed to bar a heavier cutting compound to get my car shining bright again. First time I have done this and given the results won’t be the last.
1st time using any polishing tool. Great results bringing back very dull white paint on my sisters car. I bought the Apex kit with the 2 step process - great kit for the 1st time and have already stocked up on more detail products.
So glad I bought from the detailstore, the range is quality and the info pages are great!
