The Griot's Garage G9 Random Orbital Polisher makes removing imperfections in your paint a breeze! The Griot's Garage G6 Polisher was extremely popular with weekend warriors, detailing enthusiasts and even pros, but Griot's was not satisfied. They worked to take this unit and improve it as much as possible while still making it affordable to detailers. After years of hard work and evolution, the G9 was born! This unit packs a powerful 1000 watt, 8.5 amp motor, 9mm throw, and 2000 - 6400 orbits per minute and new gears that are 45% stronger than the previous model. You'll notice this power helps you remove swirls, scratches, oxidation and other imperfections with ease. The first-ever fan-cooled counter-balance and multiple vents are designed to keep overall operating heat down, which extends the life of tools, backing plates and pads while improving performance. At the bottom of the unit, you will find a quick connect where the 10ft 18 AWG SJO rubber power cord enters the G9 handle. You heard that right, a quick connect! This allows you to quickly snap-in, or remove the cord at a moments notice. This is great if you want to hang the unit up, swap it out for a longer cord, travel, etc. The safety clip keeps the cord in place during use, so no fears of it popping out while polishing. It even has a temperature management system that will shut the machine down if for some reason it was overheating to the point of burning up the motor. Throw in the premium bearing construction, lubricated with Mobil Mobilux Premium Grease, speed dial that works for left and right handed users, constant speed control, quick access to brush side ports and platypus head grip, shroud and rubber rest pads and this unit has many high-end unique features.
