    Old School Milwaukee Polisher #5455

    Anyone out there using , or still using this machine? I've had this thing for 20 years and it still works great. Wool or foam pads depending on job. 8" pad covers lots of area.

    I just sold one about a month ago. It was about 5 years old and worked great.

    Hi Richard,

    I moved your post out of a thread on polishes and created your very own, dedicated thread. You can do this any time by clicking a button in a forum group that says,

    Like you see in the picture below...






    As to your question, I've used many a Milwaukee Rotary buffers in my life but all of them have been older ones and compared to the new styles on the market they were very heavy, large and sometimes loud.

    Have you ever tried out a Porter Cable Dual Action Polisher for doing finishing work after the rotary buffer steps?

    If not you might really like a tool like this as a companion to your rotary buffer. The Porter Cable dual action polisher is lightweight and works excellent for finishing steps after the heavy cutting is over.

    Thanks for educating me on the navigation! I am looking to purchase a Porter Cable as we speak.
    I think it will be nice to have a smaller machine to access tight spaces on vehicles. I'm starting to feel like a real detailer lately LOL! thanks for your input. I appreciate it!
