Re: Rotary polishing, the love affair with the old school buffer ......
Thanks for the link to this thread! I love them all and just thinking to how and who used them and what they used them on makes me think of a time much further back than my 24 years! Anything that has a name badge riveted on is worth keeping to me, I just bought a 60's DeVilbiss compressor that i'm going to restore to working order but like yourself keep it looking it's age and showing it's use.Comment

She works her magic at a set 1450RMPs. She is almost entirely made of metal. Notice the side handle is made of wood.
The gear lock is a push button mounted on the side.
Love this one, wouldn't mine having one myself.

He is the latest beauty to the collection. She is another of the Black and Decker family. The search for this polisher started when I found and purchased the can of "Home Utility Automotive Polish." I was fascinated by that little polisher on the front. Almost two years after I bought the can I found the exact "home utility" polisher on eBay for $10!!!!
Isn't she a beauty?
