Product Description
The Griot's Garage G9 Random Orbital Polisher makes removing imperfections in your paint a breeze! The Griot's Garage G6 Polisher was extremely popular with weekend warriors, detailing enthusiasts and even pros, but Griot's was not satisfied. They worked to take this unit and improve it as much as possible while still making it affordable to detailers. After years of hard work and evolution, the G9 was born! This unit packs a powerful 1000 watt, 8.5 amp motor, 9mm throw, and 2000 - 6400 orbits per minute and new gears that are 45% stronger than the previous model. You'll notice this power helps you remove swirls, scratches, oxidation and other imperfections with ease. The first-ever fan-cooled counter-balance and multiple vents are designed to keep overall operating heat down, which extends the life of tools, backing plates and pads while improving performance. At the bottom of the unit, you will find a quick connect where the 10ft 18 AWG SJO rubber power cord enters the G9 handle. You heard that right, a quick connect! This allows you to quickly snap-in, or remove the cord at a moments notice. This is great if you want to hang the unit up, swap it out for a longer cord, travel, etc. The safety clip keeps the cord in place during use, so no fears of it popping out while polishing. It even has a temperature management system that will shut the machine down if for some reason it was overheating to the point of burning up the motor. Throw in the premium bearing construction, lubricated with Mobil Mobilux Premium Grease, speed dial that works for left and right handed users, constant speed control, quick access to brush side ports and platypus head grip, shroud and rubber rest pads and this unit has many high-end unique features. If you are looking for an awesome overall polisher, the Griot's Garage G9 Random Orbital Polisher is an amazing choice!G9 Accessories:
The G9 comes stock with a 10ft cord and 6" backing plate, but below are some other options avaible for purchase.
- Griot's Garage Quick Connect Power Cord (25ft)
- Griot's Garage Vented Orbital Backing Plates (5" & 6")

Professional Detailer Reviews
This past week we had a Ford Raptor Baja in the shop. It was the perfect candidate for an initial test of the new Griot's Garage G9 Polisher. To test out their latest machine, we performed a two-step paint correction process on the drivers' door. First up was the compounding step utilizing the Fast Correcting Cream and a Microfiber Fast Cutting Pad. After a 2x2 section was compounded, we followed up with Perfecting Cream and a Perfecting Foam Pad. The result left a defect-free finish with almost zero micro marring.

Customer Reviews
I purchased this mainly for a backup polisher. I tried it on a few cars and it is smooth and powerful enough for enhancements on paint. Some have had trouble with the cord but time will tell.
Sweet! Have had my G15 for 7yrs; started to lose a little confidence in it so bought the G9 and after reading a few reviews. Just used it for the first time doing full detail on two cars (Forester and Escape) over two days. G9 handled like a dream, even for my 75yr old hand and shoulder joints. Smooth operation, easy to maneuver laterally and up &down. Pleasantly quieter than G15. Bought 5" plate for it as suggested by many. Only surprise (only 1 time): ext cord came loose when extending across a roof; refastened cord and had no further problem. Would absolutely buy again for a weekend warrior.
Used it twice. Literally for a total of maybe 4 hours. Same issue and another review....trigger/power lock broke. Tool works although intermittently. Had to finish job using another tool. Now need to get replacement as I bought it less than a month ago.
