The Metabo PE15-20RT is a professional-grade 1500W sander polisher designed for fine grinding, paint correction, and high-gloss finishing on automotive and painted surfaces. Built for maximum durability and precision, this powerful 180mm polisher is a favourite among auto detailers, restoration specialists, and trades professionals who need consistent performance under demanding workloads.
Powered by a high-output 1,500W motor paired with a high-performance planetary gear train, this machine delivers outstanding torque and exceptional longevity.
