Full Description

The ShineMate EX620 5/15 is a random orbital polisher with a 15mm throw. The polisher has a high quality construction with a focus on ergonomics and delicate appearance, which is what we have come to expect with ShineMate polishers.

This machine is comfortable in the hand and during prolonged periods of use, featuring soft grips around the trigger and head of the machine. It features a progressive trigger allowing for careful control of the machines operating speed on the fly, as well as a traditional speed controller on top, with operating speeds varying from 3000 - 5800/min. The powerful motor has a maximum output of 1200w and the digital intelligent control ensures a constant speed output and smooth operation with vibration inhibition technology. The motor is built to last, providing strong operation and durable carbon brushes with low maintenance. Power is fed to the machine via a generous 5M long cable.

The machine features improved ventilation, helping to keep the machine cool, helping to prolong the life of internal components and the Dust Devil backing plate helps to reduce both heat and dust.

Expert Notes

The ShineMate EX620 5/15 Random Orbital Polisher is made for correcting and finishing paintwork. Polish a clean, dry panel in small sections: spread the polish at low speed, then correct with slow overlapping passes and light, even pressure. Disconnect the power before changing pads and keep it out of reach of children. The Drivers HQ stocks a wider range of ShineMate car care products. Clean the pads during and after use and keep the vents free of dust.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

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

Caution: Switch it off and disconnect the power before changing pads, keep the cable clear of the pad, and keep the pad flat and moving so heat never builds in one spot. Keep it out of reach of children.

How To Use

Polishing

  1. Wash, decontaminate and dry the car first.
  2. Fit a clean pad centred on the backing plate.
  3. Prime the pad with a little polish and spread it at low speed.
  4. Work small sections with slow overlapping passes, then wipe off and check.

Afterwards

  1. Switch it off and disconnect the power.
  2. Remove and clean the pad.
  3. Blow dust from the vents.
  4. Store it dry, in its case if it has one.

Top Tip: Starting with the least aggressive pad and polish that works keeps as much clear coat as possible.

ShineMate Black Diamond pads

Black Diamond is ShineMate's range of diamond-patterned foam pads, covering every stage from compounding to finishing. The diamond face reduces polish splash and heat build-up, withstands heat and washing, and gives steady control, on both rotary and dual action polishers. Choose by colour:

  • Green, heavy cutting: the most aggressive pad in the range, for deep scratches, overspray, 1200/1500 sanding marks and heavy oxidation. Green.
  • Yellow, cutting: an intensive cutting pad for deep scratches, overspray, severe swirl marks, 1500 sanding marks and heavy oxidation. Yellow.
  • Orange, light cutting: removes minor scratches and swirl marks and leaves a level, smooth surface. Orange.
  • Blue, polishing: removes 1500 and 2000 grit sanding marks, overspray and other surface defects. Blue.
  • Red, finishing: the softest step; with a finishing polish it removes ultra-fine swirls, car wash scratches and hazing, and it is the pad for glazes. Red.
  • Grey, wax: for applying waxes and sealants by machine. Grey.

The pads come in 4in, 6in and 7in to fit your backing plate. Start with the least aggressive pad that removes the defects, use a separate pad for each polish, and clean pads between panels. For heavier cutting there is also the blue microfibre cutting pad.
