    Electric Polishers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Buffers and Polishers. Electric Polishers.
    Plug into a power source to remove deep scratches and other defects from surfaces. These polishers use rotary motion for faster, more aggressive finishing than random-orbital polishers. However, they may leave microscopic swirl marks on surfaces. Adjust speed without removing your hand from the tool—turn the dial with your thumb. Higher speeds remove heavier defects, and lower speeds reduce the risk of damage to delicate surfaces. Polishers have a two-position side handle, so you can hold them with either hand.
    Attach hook and loop buffing and polishing pads to the included backup pad, or attach arbor-mount buffing and polishing pads directly to the threaded spindle.

    Connect to compressed air to remove deep scratches and other defects from surfaces. These polishers use rotary motion for faster, more aggressive finishing than random-orbital polishers. However, they may leave microscopic swirl marks on surfaces. Adjust speed without removing your hand from the tool—turn the dial with your thumb. Higher speeds remove heavier defects, and lower speeds reduce the risk of damage to delicate surfaces. Polishers have a two-position side handle, so you can hold them with either hand.

    Swirl-Free Electric Polishers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Buffers and Polishers. Swirl-Free Electric Polishers.
    Leave surfaces polished and free of swirls. Also known as random orbital polishers, these polishers move in small, irregular circles. No part of the pad repeats its path, which prevents swirl marks. Since they’re gentler than rotary polishers, they won’t remove defects as quickly.
    Adjust speed without removing your hand from the tool—turn the dial with your thumb. Higher speeds remove heavier defects, and lower speeds reduce the risk of damage to delicate surfaces. Attach hook and loop buffing and polishing pads to the included backup pad.
