    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.

    Leave a smooth finish on surfaces anywhere—these polishers have no cord to limit mobility. Use them for quick jobs where you don’t have access to an air or electric power source. They move the pad in an aggressive rotary motion, which removes defects faster than random-orbital polishers. They’re ideal for removing deep scratches and making heavy corrections to your surface. However, they may leave microscopic swirl marks.
    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, or attach arbor-mount buffing and polishing pads directly to the threaded spindle.
