Versatile low speed rotary tool,
By tangent (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Makita 9227CX3 7-Inch Hook and Loop Electronic Polisher-Sander with Polishing Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
Everything about this product screams quality, the pads, the bag and of course the unit itself are all very well constructed and designed.
It has the same 5/8" thread size as most angle grinders so you can use it with any of the wide variety of attachments made to fit angle grinders, just get some locking nuts from any grinder. It actually makes many of those attachments much more useful than they are on a standard angle grinder due to its lower speeds and the greater control offered by the loop style handle. Attach a fine wire brush wheel to easily make brushed metal, or use a spiral sewn cloth wheel with some polishing compound to bring metals to a mirror finish. Use it with a diamond disc for easily slicing through metal or wood. With a set of diamond polishing pads you can polish granite, marble and other natural stones to a high lustre. Attach ordinary microfiber towels or sponges to the hook and loop pad and you can buff or clean just about anything. I have even used it with grinding wheels meant for a bench grinder to sharpen my knives and garden tools. Of course it is also a great sander and famed in the auto detailing industry as one of the top (if not the best) circular car polishers on the market. What sets this tool apart from the pack is the fact that it can handle heavy torque loads without slowing down, even at low rpm. I have tried other similar tools (circular polishers and VS angle grinders capable of low speeds) which had no problems handling torque at higher speeds but could not handle much at low rpm without slowing down or wavering. That functionality is crucial to many delicate polishing and grinding applications where you need an even cut without removing too much material. This thing is very comfortable to use, runs smooth and quiet, does not overheat, and it can stand up to a heck of a lot of abuse. What more could you ask for?

Makita Polisher. Faster and better than my porter 7424!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Makita 9227CX3 7-Inch Hook and Loop Electronic Polisher-Sander with Polishing Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
Hi everyone.
Oh yes. You've got me! I'm a Porter-Cable 7424 6-Inch Variable Speed Random-Orbit Polisher user and this is my very first rotary (i was scared to death about trying this on my car) so my review is from an enthusiast point of view. I like car detailing very much but two years ago i knew nothing about it so i started looking at the internet for answers to questions i didn't have at that time about car care. You can find a lot of information about what polish to use (i prefer menzerna over everything else i now know by the way), what pad to use, what wax to use, how to wash your car, how to polish it and the list simply goes on and on but, when trying to decide about what polisher to use things starts to become fuzzy. Some people tells you the porter it's the best for the beginner. Some people tells you can't go without a FLEX XC3401 VRG Orbital Polisher Intro Kit And almost everybody tells you if you're a Pro, use a rotary!!! Now my findings: The hing is tough, the porter it's for almost perfect paint finish that you need to polish or you have too much time to finish. It's just too slow to achieve what you need if your paint finish knows automatic car wash that gives you, a beautiful swirled surface you'll notice some day under the sun. The solution: Try a rotary, but there's a catch. Rotary are told to burn the paint if you don't use it carefully but if you use some very easy to understand techniques, you'll get a beautiful paint finish a LOT faster than the one using the porter. The makita is: - Faster - Quieter - Heavier - More practical - More comfortable Than the porter. The electronic speed sensor gives you constant speed and the dial let's you select the desired speed very easily. This thing while not the heaviest, it's HEAVY and controlling it requires a lot more muscle at the beginning than the porter but you need to use it for less time so it compensates the weight. If all you need it's to spread wax over your car, this thing may be overkill but if what you need is to polish faster and better with a dependable tool look no further. There is a DEWALT DW849 8 Amp 7-Inch/9-Inch Electronic Variable-Speed Right-Angle Polisher but it's heavier and believe me, you don't want more weight while polishing vertical surfaces like you car sides so my recommendation, buy this one! After polishing 4 cars ( I'm a hobbyist ) i love this one and i'll keep the porter for more delicate polishing. If you can have both... why not???. What i don't like about the Flex it's that it only works with one size of pads while the porter and the Makita can use many sizes means more flexibility. Hope this helps! JP

Makita 9227CX3 7" Electronic Sander-Polisher,
By Lewis C. Reyna "Fair Winds and Following Seas!" (Virginia Beach, VA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Makita 9227CX3 7-Inch Hook and Loop Electronic Polisher-Sander with Polishing Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
Excellent tool. The polisher is easy to control once you get the hang of it. It easily, quickly, and with plenty of power applied the liquid car wax I was using. The tool felt well balanced and well behaved. The speed control is delightful to experience - maintains the same speed under load or no load conditions.
The tool came with two bonnets, one to apply compound and another for final polishiing. The compounding bonnet is the only one I used since I discovered this same bonnet also polishes to a deep luster as the wax you're applying hazes over - the bonnet polishes this haze to nice deep shine. I also used a small spray bottle of water to wet small areas to help spread the wax - it worked great. I am ordering two new compounding bonnets for spares. Suggest you test out the bonnets and find out for yourself before ordering more.... I am really happy with this tool, and I feel it is well worth the money. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to buy a similar tool.
