Easy to use and incredible reaults

I’ve been in fear to attempts to compound and polish any of my vehicles, I bought both the 15mm and 12mm SK and paint corrected my black megacab. These are extremely easy to use and put out amazing results!

New Polisher

This is the second polisher I have purchased. I'm very happy with the quality and durability of the Adams products!

Not for the professional

Very under power and stalls on everything. I took a shot and purchased via a distributor and I immediately reached out to ask if I happened to get a machine that had problems. Never got a response from them but after asking and researching, they’re just very under powered. Especially for the price. Anything over $129 is way to much for this. It’s got a good weight. It has a nice balance with low vibration. But it’s far far far from a swirl killer. I asked if i could return for a exchange for a more expensive machine and not a word. Very unhappy with the Swirl killer and since I never got a response from the company I bought it from, I tossed it in the dumpster. It’s been used less than 10 times hoping I could find a use.

Adam's Polishes

Hello Scott, Thank you so much for your feedback. We value all feedback, as it helps us grow as a company, and support our customers needs. The 15mm is definitely not designed for a professional that is looking to get quick results. This is why we offer our 15mm SK Pro model as an alternative. If you still have the machine, we could look at applying a credit towards our more powerful pro model. We want to ensure that you are satisfied with your purchase. If this is something that you would be interested in, please email us directly at, orders@adamspolishes.com We look forward to speaking with you. -Adam's Polishes Support Team

Easy to use/Great results

I had this polisher for a year and didn't use it until now. This was my first attempt at polishing and I was VERY surprised with how easy it was to use. I watched a few Adams How-To videos on Youtube and just went to work. I was very pleased with the results! The long cord made it easy to roam freely without issue, I kept the settings at 3-4 and used everything in the kit except the flashlight due to outdoor lighting. The vibration and noise didn't bother me as it was to be expected with any polisher I guess. As a beginner, this definitely was worth the money and I can't wait to polish again! I highly recommend this product!

Varies speed

I bought mine 3 years ago and after using it the second time it started varying speed on it's own, it's out of warranty so it's my loss.


Adam's Swirl Killer 15mm Long Throw Orbital Polisher was designed with our customer in mind. This product has less vibration, reduced long term fatigue, and has been tested in the market on hundreds of cars for over a year. The soft 25-foot cord makes it a game changer in your garage, too. The machine also features a soft-start for a smooth and safe start when you pull the trigger.

A long throw polisher like the Adam’s Swirl Killer is a dual-action machine polisher that oscillates and shakes the backing plate and polishing pad in many directions in quick motions, several thousand times per minute. The movement mimics how our hand moves in an irregular circular pattern when polishing or waxing a surface by hand. Dual action polishers differ from rotary buffers in that rotary buffers have fixed rotation and spin only in a circular motion without oscillating the pad. Rotary buffers are rated in Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) as opposed to the Oscillations Per Minute (OPM) of a Long Throw Dual Action Polisher.

Long Throw Polishers typically have a 15mm or 21mm orbit pattern. While a 21mm throw can correct imperfections a little more quickly than a 15mm throw, the larger orbit and larger pad size for these machines can make them a little more difficult to use on some vehicles with very complex curves. Therefore, we chose a 15mm throw with smaller 5.5” and 6.5” pads for the Adam’s Swirl Killer for it to be more versatile for most of our customers.

Adam's Swirl Killer allows you to finish down a surface amazingly, to as near flawless as possible with minimal effort. In some instances, this can be accomplished in as little as one polishing step, unlike rotary buffers. Rotary buffers can leave holograms or buffer trails from improper technique, pad type, or compound, which then require additional polishing steps to make the surface hologram free. The longer throw of the Swirl Killer when compared to other traditional random orbital polishers allows for stronger and faster correction, while still being safe on the surface. For these reasons, Long Throw Polishers are bridging the gap in regards to time savings compared to Rotary Buffers.

The Swirl Killer polisher has several design features that make it more enjoyable and comfortable to use. The trigger is large, easy to engage, and has a lock mechanism to reduce strain and fatigue on your fingers when polishing for an extended period. The trigger also features a soft start for a smooth and safe start when you pull the trigger. The hand grip above the polishing head is rubber for reduced vibration through your hand and arm. The backing plate has a strong Velcro hook and loop system to keep polishing pads secure during use, but still easy enough to remove the pad without too much effort. The power cord is a soft rubber design so that it can comfortably drape over your shoulder while polishing and not twist or tangle as easily. The cord is a longer 25-foot length for easier maneuverability around the vehicle.

We have been extensively testing this polisher and now it's time for you to enjoy this affordable, high-quality precision machine too!
