Easy Handling Polisher/Grinder/Sander
By William G. Tsarones
I bought my Makita PV7001C Vertical Polisher about 3 years ago and have been extremely pleased with its performance, ease-of-use, and versatility. This isn't just a great polisher, it's also a grinder and sander.
I had used a similar tool in the early 70's on a job between years of college and was determined I would some day get one for myself. But no matter where I looked at tools, I never saw one, by any manufacturer. Then I stumbled onto the PV7001C.
It can be used with a 7" grinding pad, not to be confused with a sanding pad. The grinding pads are thick, epoxy resin reinfored, but are still flexible. Great for grinding and smoothing metal, fiberglass-reinforced plastic, or wood. This method of grinding is significantly better than using a standard metal grinder and its inflexible stone type pad. The flexibility of the PV7001C's backing pad (rubber) along with an appropriate grit grinding pad is an unbeatable combination. No gouges!!
The hook and loop backing pad is what is used for polishing. All types of foam and wool pads are available for it. The electronic control of the PV7001C means you can dial in the speed, and as you apply pressure, the RPM's stay constant. Very Nice.
The PV7001C is also easy to wield around. It's not overly heavy and is great for polishing or grinding in a bent over position, as in working the sides of an auto.
I highly recommend this tool. It is of exceptional quality and definitely worth the price!

By Megan
I had bought one of these polishers for my company (I'm the Ordering Manager) from another source about 1 year ago. We had great success with it for our application, so I was requested to buy another for a cheaper price. I found that cheaper price but same great quality here! Makita is a well known company that produces great machinery and we are never disappointed with it's results. Thank you for making this item available for the fraction of the catalog price but no less the quality of the product!
