If you’re looking for a powerful rotary polisher for professional paint correction, look no further! The Metabo PE 12-175 is a rotary polisher with a 1200 Watt motor and excellent torque. All this is packaged in surprisingly lightweight, rugged housing.
The Metabo is a rotary polisher, also called a circular polisher or a high speed polisher. A rotary polisher spins the pad at a high speed, which creates enough heat and friction to level paint and remove oxidation. For this reason, more professional detailers use a rotary for paint correction.
The Metabo is among the very best rotary polishers on the market. It’s constructed entirely in Germany from German-made parts. Each polisher is carefully assembled and tested for durability, load, and performance.
The Metabo has all these impressive features:
Metabo Marathon Motor - The unique winding protection and the epoxy powder coating on the coil windings make the motor completely impervious to harmful dust. The Metabo coil guard provides extra protection from the abrasive effects of workshop dust.
Vario-Tacho-Constamatic (VTC) Full wave electronic - The speed can be controlled continuously from minimum speed to maximum speed. The speed at rated load is same as speed at no load even under tough conditions of use and at very low controlled speeds.
Autostop Carbon Brushes – When the Autostop carbon brushes are worn, the power tool switches off automatically, thus preventing armature damage.
Restart Protection – The restart protection prevents the tool from starting unintentionally when being plugged in again or when power is restored after a power failure.
Ergonomic Front Cap – Ergonomic front cap for optimized machine guidance in continuous operation.
Spindle Locking Knob – Spindle lock for simple backing plate changes.
Use the Metabo on clear coated and single stage cars, gel coat boats and RVs, and aluminum trailers. The polisher eliminates flaws on any painted surface and leaves a smooth, swirl-free surface.
A 6 Inch Flexible Hook & Loop Rotary Backing Plate is included with the Metabo. Use it with 7.5 and 8.5 inch Lake Country pads, or with the Edge 2000 pads. Be sure to select the Edge Rotary Drive Adapter for the Metabo.
As with all rotary polishers, there is a risk of burning the paint with the Metabo. To avoid damaging the paint, keep the polisher moving at all times. Start off at a slow speed and only increase speed if necessary and if you are comfortable in doing so. Only apply enough pressure to keep the pad in contact with the paint. Take care to avoid digging the edge of the pad into the paint at an angle. If this is your first time using a rotary polisher, use it in the company of a skilled friend, or practice on a scrap car panel before attempting any paint correction on your own vehicle. Follow these tips and you’ll be polishing like a professional!
