Has anyone on here tried this product on their equipment and how effective is it as far as sanding and polishing? I've looked at this earlier this year but haven't gotten a chance to decide on it until now. Also, how good are they about delivery time?

Never tried it as I have a spinner. That said, I'd think getting the same grit over the whole ball might be tough. You'd have to keep the pad moving, making sure you used the same pressure all over. That's the same with a spinner but you can cover more of the ball at once, I'd think, than you could with this system.
Good price, might be worth a try, for those who don't have a spinner or don't want to spend that kind of money for one.
Good Luck with ever way you go.

It works very well actually. I have this and a Vortex spinner and I tend to use this more than the spinner. Both have their place in my opinion. If you want defined sanding lines, a spinner will work better, but this comes closer to the actual finish you get when the ball is new.
Make sure you get the base they offer. It will allow the ball to spin in place which makes it much easier to get a consistent finish.
One other thing, I find that my sanding pads last longer with this than with the spinner.
