Title: High speed 1500rpm
Post by: Tibi N. on February 04, 2017, 05:09:31 pm

I was offered a numatic high speed burnisher, at a very good price. Question is, never used one and not sure exactly what can I do with it. Is it worth the trouble ? What can be used for ?

High Speed Burnishers have their uses but is usually restricted to just that,  High Speed Burnishing.  This is the process of creating enough heat and friction to Burnish / Crystalize the surface.  The process is usually called vitrification or crystallisation.  High speed burnishers usually sell for between £150 up to £500 depending on make and condition unless it is a propane one which sell for a lot more

Thank you Kevin. I will pass then.  It's not the money but the fact that I was not sure about what can it be used for. I clean hard  floors but only basic cleaning.
