SPTA makes some VERY solid polishers and probably provide the most accessories of any company along with that nice case. I love my SPTA 5 inch long throw cordless DA polisher. It runs very smooth and has a lot of power. A lot of people go right for Flex or Rupes because of their strong following in the detailing community, but a value minded detailer or enthusiast could do just as well polishing with the SPTA 5 inch cordless DA along with one of these mini polishers and you'd have just about all the polishing equipment you would need to complete a very nice cut and/or polish on a vehicle. They are a perfect choice for a weekend warrior or detailing enthusiast.

Their battery pump sprayer is rebranded by bigboi, and I don't know for sure but I've always noticed that the Shine Mate line of cordless polishers has a very strong resemblance to the SPTA line. At this point I really wish they'd make a bigger push towards marketing their own brand so less people would be tricked into paying double the price for the same thing from some other brand.
