This is our new Hardin industrial grade variable speed wet polisher / grinder. This professional unit is equipped with a 800-Watt variable speed motor and features a variable speed dial for optimal control. You can operate from 700-3,000-RPM. After shaping the edge of your slab (profile wheel not included), you'll most likely want to polish it so that it matches the top of the countertop. This Hardin VSP polishing kit with granite and marble pads is the ideal kit for this application. The pads in this kit are not general or multi-purpose polishing pads. They are professional grade 4 diameter X 3MM thick granite and marble pads made with a softer bond resin that releases the diamonds at the proper rate for hard materials. Start the polishing process with the lower-Grit diamond pads and work your way up consecutively to the last one to achieve that factory shine. You'll want to take care with the 50 and 100-Grit pads. They are the most aggressive-Grit pads, you can easily chance the shape of your material. This unit is equipped with a 5-Feet 1/4-Inch water line that is positioned under the polisher. The end comes with a brass 5/8-Inchcoupling to thread onto a common garden water hose. The standardized 5/8-11 UNC spindle thread makes it compatible with most attachments on the market. Built-in GFCI (circuit breaker) protects the operator. Also included with this unit is a bail handle (D handle), side handle, spindle wrench, and extra carbon brushes. Always wear a rubber glove to operate this grinder/polisher to prevent electric shock/tingling.

I have had several wet polishers, and this is by far, the best I have ever used. I use wet polishers to shape and polish stone, as a hobby. I ordered it Saturday night and it was delivered the following Monday morning. I quickly assembled the handle and splash guard, and used it on a large piece of hard nephrite jade (a hardness level of 7 on the MOHs scale of 10,...diamond is a level 10) I used each of the included pads (50, 100, 200, 800, 1500, and 300 grits) in about 2 hours. By then, the jade was ground flat and polished to a nice sheen, with no problems at all. The water nozzle worked well, but did leak slightly where the hose connects to the unit. A new rubber hose gasket will most likely correct it. That was the only issue found, and since I use the tool outside, it is really no problem for me.The polisher is very substantial and well made. The handle greatly helps you control the polisher, and allowed me to turn it so the edge of the pad could get into 1/8” grooves I made in the jade. While I have had the polisher for less than a day, the smooth, consistent way the motor operated, the versatility of the tool, and by simply observing the quality during its use, I was compelled to rate it a 5 star for longevity, especially when compared to previous wet polishers.
