    Cordless Orbital Polisher recommendations?

    Currently I have a Porter Cable 7424XP, which has worked pretty well for me, but I am looking to move to a cordless polisher in order to get rid of cord annoyances (particularly working on hard to reach places on large vehicles).

    I am totally OK with the trade offs of a battery (cost, charge time, etc.) but I have not been able to find a product I like that is comparable to the PC7424.

    Any recommendations?

    The closest comparable cordless polisher to the Porter Cable 8mm free spinning random orbital polisher that is sold by Autogeek would be the FLEX Cordless Finisher. Note the Finisher is 15mm free spinning random orbital.


    If you don't want to mess with pad stalling, (ALL brands of free spinning random orbital polishers have the characteristic of pad stalling, even the Porter Cable), then bide your time for the new FLEX Cordless BEAST aka the CBEAST to get here, hopefully sometime this month.

    I asked if the G9 will stall on curves being a free spinning DA and Mike Lambert claims that the G9 will not stall on curves.

    I find that hard to believe and yet I respect Mike Lambert's reviews.
