Expert Notes

The ShineMate EB251-5 kit puts the 5 inch cordless rotary polisher in a box with two 18V 5.0Ah batteries and a double charger. ShineMate's EB251 sheet gives 700 to 1500/min and 1.73kg without the battery. Direct rotation cuts faster than a dual action, so it suits experienced hands for heavy correction, with a dual action finishing step afterwards. With two batteries one can charge while the other cuts. The machine only version is sold as its own product.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Painted bodywork
  • Clear coats
  • Bonnets and roofs
  • Doors and wings
  • Bumpers
  • Single-stage paint

Caution: A rotary builds heat fast: keep the pad moving and flat, stay off edges and body lines, wear eye protection, and remove the battery before changing pads.

Afterwards
