the grinder spins toooooo fast and will just burn the surface

ok ok ok ok ok gooooooooooooooood
i take it it is a no then i seen a grinder thats also a p[olisher on ebay item number 280296199604

I had a grinder with variable speed which I used on the lowest setting for polishing/ buffing paintwork with no problems

Ive used a simular item as in the OP to fitt a buffing mop to a bench grider for cleaning up brass. But i would agree that for polishing paint, unless its a decent variable speed job, an angle grinder would be to fast.

Often though about using a orbital sander....


Daniel

Depends on what you plan to polish. No good for paintwork, but if you are polishing metal then it would be OK

John

A dual action sander is a good alternative. You can get them cheap from Aldi sometimes then buy a head like this for it.

SORRY I JUST WORKED OUT YOU ON ABOUT THE OTHERE TYPE OF GRINDE NOT THE TWIN WHEEL TYPE

IM LOOKING A A METAL POLISHER WITH MOPS AND SOAP FOR ALLOY AND STAINLESS.
