Whether you are a car collector, weekend enthusiast or a professional detailer, Matita’s 9227C circular polishers will give you the control needed to restore and keep your high-gloss finish. It will help you protect your investment by reducing the time it takes to apply cleaners, polishes, and protective products, and it will produce results far superior to applying these products by hand.

This polisher is powerful enough to polish out scratches, swirls, and oxidation in the clear coat to restore the finish of your vehicle. Unlike a dual-action polisher which automatically walks across the surface, this circular polisher allows you to control the movement and focus on tough imperfections.

It has an adjustable, variable speed dial to set rpm from 600 to 3000 for super slow buffing to aggressive polishing. The lock-on button allows you to use the Makita continuously at one speed. The electronic speed control maintains constant speed under load.

The tool is ergonomically designed with multiple handle positions for better pressure control and less fatigue. Providing comfortable, relaxed grip options allows you to keep the polisher gliding in an easy, slow controlled sweep over the surface.

It comes with a storage bag, compound and polishing pads to get you started. It is also convertible to a sander for paint removal or for your wood projects with additional Makita accessories. -– Sue Gregori

Rating : - Just what the doctor ordered
I bought this buffer to buff out and polish a natural penetrating oil finish that I applied to a white oak floor I installed in my son's bedroom.

The Makita buffer is very powerful and smooth-operating. I learned not to use the trigger lock, because if this tool gets away from you (and it has the power to, if you get too close to an interfering object), you really want it to stop on its own and not go through the wall. This didn't happen to me (really), but it could have.

I had to choose between the Dewalt and this one. I'm sure the Dewalt is a great tool also, but I have no regrets from buying the Makita.
