Buffer
Style: Polisher
Works grate i have 10 of this would not use anything else
Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2026 by Hector. Gonzalez

more or less exactly what I was looking for
Style: Polisher
researched variable speed grinders for over 1 year. most variable speed grinder have soda can style grip and only go as low as 3000-4000 rpm... this "grinder"=polisher has rat tail trigger style grip, suicide switch, and goes as low speed as 600 rpm. max rpm is 3200.. I bought this for sanding, so the suicide lock on button is helpful. I planned to take the guard off, this one doesnt even come with a guard. I wanted soft start and rat tail trigger style switch, this has both.. the one part I had overlooked about the soda can style grip grinders that have a paddle switch is they they do not have the suicide lock on switch, which I dont even want usually ..the suicide switch is extremely nice for sanding.. very quiet except at full speed. this is not a rattle trap, extremely smooth and quiet at low end speeds.. soft start is a bit silly when you turn it on and make it rev up to only 600 rpms.. trigger switch is NOT a positive clicky clacky switch like other makitas... is worth noting this polisher does not bog down rpms when you use it ... show more

First one lasted 25 years
Style: Polisher
Had my first one for over 25 years. It’s been in commercial use for the past 10 years and after polishing acres of gel coat, she finally after the cord got caught in the rotary head for the 47th time. These things are almost bulletproof and it’s no wonder they’ve had the same design for so long. Buy the flexible backing plate for it for better pad life. ... show more

Stands up to Heavy Use
Style: Polisher
I bought my first of these in 2002 and my second in 2014. Both have been used and abused extensively and both still run like dreams. In 2002 I started building my 4200 s.f. log home and I needed to be able to sand my logs at 1,500 - 1,800 RPM. before staining. You can't find many sanders that will go that low or many polishers heavy duty enough to handle that kind of work. This Makita did both well. In 2014 it was time (past time) to strip and restain the logs. I dug out the Makita after 10 years of resting in a tub in the barn and it ran like it was still new. But being 12 years older I decided to hire help this time; thus the need for the second buffer. I use these with a fiberglass 80 grit cup brush (Osborn brush). My helper and I wear respirators, the Makitas don't, so you can imagine the sawdust they breath in an eight-hour day of constant use. Yet they continue to give me no trouble. ... show more

Great polisher
Style: Polisher
Great polisher, handles very well, speed control is good has the soft start which help control the slurry from flying all over. As with all these right angle drive devices, they are noisy, use ear protection.
