The fifth generation of the machine that defined long-throw polishing. A 15 mm orbit on a 5-inch backing plate is the sweet spot for correcting an entire car: enough throw to cut quickly, compact enough for doors, bumpers and A-pillars. Mark V adds composite gears that drop vibration and noise, better cooling, an anti-spin ring and the rubber-edged PrecisionPro backing plate. It is the polisher most professional detailers would keep if they could only keep one.
