18V LXT Brushless 6" Dual-Mode Random/Forced Rotation Orbiting Polisher (Bare Tool)

Dual-mode random orbit and forced rotation dual-action polisher combines the cutting power of a rotary tool with the finishing capability of a random orbit polisher.

Makita polishers are preferred by automotive detailers and marine enthusiasts, and the 18V LXT Brushless cordless 6" Dual action Random orbit polisher is packed with enhanced features for consistent performance, job after job. The dual action control offers “Random orbit with forced rotation” (Coarse) or “Random orbit with free Rotation (Fine)”, and the variable speed control dial has five speed settings so users are able to set the speed and action to the application. Essentially, this tool combines the cutting power of a rotary tool (forced rotation) with the finishing capability of a random orbit polisher.

The cordless design eliminates the hassle of cord management and accidental marring of delicate surfaces. Additional performance features include an electronic controller that automatically applies additional power to maintain constant speed, even under load, and also provides soft start for smoother start-ups and longer gear life. It is ideal for commercial-duty polishing applications. The BL Brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life.
