Durable glass-reinforced nylon handle

Variable-speed trigger

Product Description

Amazon.com Review
At about 9 pounds, this polisher is an easy-to-use weight and size, and the side handle can be moved to the left or right to accommodate each user's preference. Very handy. The variable-speed trigger switch allows you to vary the rate of speed when you're polishing, slowing down or speeding up depending on the application (0 to 1,750 rpm), so it's easy to be precise. There's an easy-to-set dial speed control. The 11 amp motor never bogs down, making it easy to bear down when a deep polish is required. The glass-reinforced nylon handle is comfortable to grip and stays cool even after extended use. The spindle lock makes for convenient, quick accessory changes. We really like the detachable Quick-Lok cord, too. Cut or damage the cord, and--if you own other Milwaukee Quick-Lok tools--simply swap cords. Easy, right? (Plus, it encourages buying more Milwaukee tools--never a bad idea.) All in all, this is an easy-to-use polisher, perfect for general use. (Pros, however, might want something faster.) So whether you're working on your car, boat, RV, or tile flooring, Milwaukee's heavy-duty polisher will bring out the natural shine in no time. --Dori Anvinson

Product Description
Exclusive Milwaukee electronics provides speed control in this powerful 11 amp polisher. A spindle lock provides convenient accessory changes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heavy duty and well balanced, June 16, 2000

By	Raymond C. Edmonds (Manitou Springs CO) - See all my reviews

When you what a polisher with some guts this is the one. Having been a Millwaukee fan since my first hole shooter drill, I expect a lot from each product I buy from them. This polisher is no exception. You can put a nice buff on a wax job with a light touch, or you can grind off 10 years of oxidation with rubbing compound and a firm application. The Millwaukee just keeps on working, staying cool in your hands and not bogging down. Costs a little more to buy this quality at first, but down the road these tools are always a bargin.

4.0 out of 5 stars Spend the extra few bucks and get the Mwkee 5540, November 23, 2003

By	Bob Feeser "MillCrafters.com" (Springfield, PA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This is a very nice polisher. Their is nothing wrong with it. The reason why I suggest the Milwaukee model 5540 polisher instead, even though it is a few more dollars, is because it polishes up to 2800 RPM's. 1750 is usable for a lot of purposes, but 2400 is where you want to be for the ultimate gloss in catalyzed urethanes or old world leaded lacquers. (They took the lead out years ago, and their went the glass like gloss, so next day polishing on catalyzed urethanes is the mile deep club)
I had a body shop for 20 years, did a lot of high-end cars. Spend a zillion hours behind a polisher. Had a multi step polishing procedure. First you wet sand the car with 600 grit or 800 grit wet dry sandpaper. Then you use a true silky smooth tie on lambs wool bonnet and Dupont 606 hand application compound. (The secret is after going over the car the first time with the 606S compound, put on a fresh lambs wool bonnet, and go over the car a second time. It is amazing how it improves the gloss. That way you have a true polished surface to build your protection on. Then use liquid ebony to eliminate the swirl marks, then Maguire's machine glaze, and then hand glaze. People couldn't help but come over and ask you about the finish on the car. Three new bonnets are required) Anyhow, 1750 rpm's didn't do something, like warm up the finish enough to give you mind blowing gloss. The 5540 gives you up to 2800 RPM's with a speed setting dial, so you can tweak it in to the desired speed, which is 2400 for, automotive.
By the way the owners manual, which is available here at Amazon at this listing, and the listing on the 5540 as well shows you that the hook and loop pad is available as an option, with several different types of pads, depending on the application you are using.

Milwaukee makes great equipment, and no matter which model you choose, it is a nice piece for your arsenal. I just think the 5540 is worth the extra money, because of the increased capacity into an area that includes automotive level of finishing. Hope this helps.

5.0 out of 5 stars A nice, heavy-duty machine, March 28, 2003

By	Keith Mealy (Cincinnati, OH USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I compared this with the Makita 9227-c side by side. The Milwaukee is a good deal beefier and I'm confident it will run all day long if I ask it to. Note one difference is the Makita has a hook and loop (velcro) disk if you are for or against that. The Milwaukee has a plain rubber disk. I don't know if H&L is an option or not.

I use this for final buff-out of high gloss lacquer furniture finishes and it works great.

A nice feature is that the back has a "stand" of sorts, so you can lay the tool down securely without contaminating the bonnet. Also nice is the twist-lock cord that helps prevent breaking the conductors at the point where it leaves the tool. I have this problem with other tools that require a sharp bend to get them back in their cases.

This is variable speed, with a dial, so all you do is dial in the speed and pull the trigger switch. The speed dial is conveniently located at thumb-tip above the trigger.
