LDHTHOPI 1800W Burnishing Polishing Machine, 110V Handheld Electric Stainless Steel Polisher, 8 Variable Speed, 3100RPM for Metal, Stainless Steel, Wood

I bought this primarily for resurfacing seven, 8’ x 30” commercial stainless steel food preparation and serving tables in our church’s kitchen and social hall. Each of the tables consist of two full length shelves. I first wanted to try the tool on my commercial table saw top and jointer top so that I could get a good feel for how the different grit drawing wheels and the burnisher itself would perform. Previously, I have always used a random orbit sander with #220, then #400 sanding discs to condition these surfaces. I would then follow with a high-grade metal polish. Today, it was time to try something new. I must admit, I was not expecting such good results! I started with a #180 wheel, followed by a #320 wheel and finished with a #800 grit wheel. I was able to complete the entire process, including wheel changes, in roughly the same amount of time as I would have, had I used the sander. Not only that, but the surface was left just as smooth, or even a bit smoother than I could achieve with just the sander. Once I applied the metal polish, my 200w high bay shop lights happily glistened off of the freshly dressed steel. 😀 This new burnisher performed flawlessly. The drawing wheels fit nicely with absolutely no play on the spindle. There was virtually zero noticeable vibration at all. Even with the coarser grit wheels, which I found a bit surprising. Another great feature of this tool is it is soft-starting, which means the RPMs slowly build over a second, or two when the trigger is depressed. This provides an extra layer of control. The variable speed control knob is very conveniently located, was smooth operating and provided for precise control and stability from start to finish. Although I only put about 20 minutes total run time on the tool, the gearbox never did get hot. In fact, it barely even got warm. However, I will keep a close eye on the temperature of the gears and should they begin to heat up excessively with extended use, I’ll add some high-temp grease to the gearbox. One of the primary reasons for tools of this design (grinders, polishers, burnishers, etc.) failing is from the gearbox overheating. Well, I think I’m ready to go make those stainless steel tables look brand new again! 😉 Thus far, I’m completely satisfied with this purchase and I highly recommend this burnisher!!! Especially considering the price point. 😀

Fabulous tool at a great price. I bought it to restore the cast iron tops of my table saw, bandsaw and sanders. Worked like a dream. I'd suggest buying the replacement stripper wheels from Harbor Freight as they work great and coast half as much as Amazon.

The only thing negative is you have to wait until it totally stops rotating before it wi allow you to restart it. other than that it works great. WE'll probably only use it once anyway

I love it! Easy to use, powerful, and the job done!

I have 600 feet of raised car deck that needs to be stripped and stained. I tried scraper and then 36 grit sanding with my 36 x 3 belt sander. While they both worked, it was slow going and hard. I bought this Burnishing Polishing machine because it looked rugged. I also bought the coarsest wire drum that Amazon marketed. The result was absolutely astounding! This tool with the coarsest twisted wire drum strips layers from that last 45 years like crazy! Then, using propane torch to bubble up the paint before using this tool, it was even better. The old paint came up like a bad sunburn! POWER! The tool doesn't bog down, even with dozens of pounds of pressure onto the wood. It doesn't overheat. The wire drum doesn't wear out (so far) . I'm very happy with this tool. This tool is great and if it breaks, I'll buy another.

Have been using this for both metal and wood cleaning and burnishing. On metal I was getting ready to fabricate, removed surface rust and old paint without damaging the original metal, was much faster than hand sanding. For wood, I had to manufacture some specialty tools with wooden handles and was worried about the potential for slivers. The machine quickly cleaned and prepped dimensional lumber (2x2 Fir) with eased edges, all saw kerf removed, and comfortable handles ready for painting and use. Didnt build up heat on the materials being prepped nor in the machine. Recommend

does what it's advertized for, handy tool to have .

nice tool..didn't like it roll sander but everything else worked well..is heavy..strips paint fast
