The Adam's Swirl Killer 9mm LT is a dual-action polisher with a 9mm orbit and a 5-inch backing plate, built as a first machine for paint correction. Its 1000-watt motor runs 2500 to 6500 OPM with variable speed, and a 16-foot attached cord means fewer extension cords around the car. The short 9mm throw is gentler and easier to control than long-throw 15mm and 21mm machines, so it suits beginners and smaller panels, though it removes defects more slowly than a big throw. Owners rate it well overall; the main complaints are vibration and the bare-bones kit, which includes only the polisher and backing plate.

The Adam's Swirl Killer 9mm LT Polisher is a dual action, long throw polisher for correcting paint and removing swirl marks and scratches. It has a 9mm throw and a 5" backing plate. It is made for people starting out with machine polishing, and it suits smaller, hard-to-polish spots.
A 1000-watt, 9 amp motor runs on 120V, with variable speed from 2500 to 6500 OPM. The head shell is plastic rather than iron, which keeps the tool light. An external carbon brush is easy to replace.
The soft-touch head cover has concave rubber contact points that absorb vibration and improve control. It can be paired with Adam's polishing pads, compound and polish.
