Let me clarify looking for place to get them one of the polishers I use will need a set and to buy from manufacturers it 30 when shipping is added which is crazy to me and I don’t trust the cheap Chinese one.

Also how long do u go before replacing on your machines *brushes* 1 year 2 years

it'd be helpful to know what brand/model polisher you have.

?? why would you *replace* the machine every year (or 2 or 3 or ???) especially if you buy a decent one to begin with vs.
some piece of junk?

Replace them when the polisher quits. Everything depends on the amount of use the polisher gets.

Machine was bought used 21mm shurhold it a popular machine in boating community.Shurhold makes products for boat gel coat correction. The machine is most powerful 21mm I have used. to bog it down real effort and pressure is needed. Good build quality low heat at constant use at speed 4.5 I have used for year about 25 corrections or 1 steps maybe 120 hours on it but do not know history I am replacing brushes because I like the machine I treat it well. I replaced grease with mobile 1syn red, clean internals once every 1 month with duster can and slime

For as easy to change, and as cheap as they are, I would replace the brushes in any power tool that has them at around 100 hours.

Just my opinion, but I have been using just about every power tool imaginable for 40 years now.
