The aim of every Festool power tool is to make your day-to-day work
better and more effective. With this in mind, we have worked closely
with specialists in the detailing trade to bring you the new rotary polisher SHINEX. The new contoured shapeoffers numerous gripping
options which make polishing noticeably more comfortable. This SHINEX
has low weight and optimum weight distribution, making tool guidance
even easier and more secure. The special variable speed trigger allows
you to adapt the speed perfectly to suit whatever polishing job you
happen to be working on.
Not only comfortable to operate the dynamics have also improved
thanks to the newly developed double reduction gearing. This new
feature ensures a high performance combined with increase endurance.
Backing pads, polishing pads, polishes, finishing cleaner,
microfibre cloth: ever ything you need per fectly designed for use
with the SHINE X. Specially developed foams and compounds
ensure optimum polishing results and longer life for backing and
polishing pads.

Built for dazzling performance.
From 400 to 2100 revs.
Power is one thing, applying it in the right amount as
it’s needed is another: the conveniently positioned
variable speed trigger lets you start the SHINEX
gently at a low speed and then speed it up to as much
as 2100 rpm, depending on the set torque level. The
trigger can be locked to keep the speed constant. The
newly developed double reduction gearing means
that the SHINEX always has enough power and
stamina in reserve for hours of intensive polishing
work. And not just in the higher speed range, but also
in the particularly demanding lower range. The heat
produced by the motor is continually drawn off by an
integrated heat sink. That’s not just good for the
bearings, but also makes itself felt under your grip:
you’ll notice that the gripping zones of the SHINEX
stay cool over long periods of use. Along with the
1 – Easy to guide
With a much smaller distance bet ween the body and the pad when
compared with conventional two-level polishing tools, the SHINEX
is easy to guide in any position. It lies securely balanced on the
surface, allowing sensitive work close to the sur face even in hardto-reach spots. The soft-grip material makes it pleasant and

secure to hold.

ergonomic shape of the handle and the high-quality soft-grip material,
that makes for pleasant and secure guiding of the tool. And to permit
optimum transfer of power to the surface, the SHINEX has been positioned lower down: the minimal distance between the body and the pad
allows sensitive and precise polishing, makes even hard-to-reach spots
accessible and guarantees top polishing results due to a low, balanced
centre of gravity.
2 – Sturdy and durable
The integrated heat sink in the front gripping zone of the SHINEX
keeps the temperature there noticeably lower and a fan assists
the removal of motor heat from the housing (see diagram). That
means you can work for longer with greater comfort. At the same
time, the double reduction gearing extends the service life of the
tool. Dust and fluff sucked into the body is kept out by a filter.
3 – Exactly the right amount of power
The variable speed trigger on the SHINEX
permits controlled speed increase from 400 up
to the maximum rpm within each of a total of six
speed levels. For polishing at constant speed,
the trigger is simply locked in place.

The variable speed trigger permits polishing at a speed precisely adjusted to
suit the task in hand. For a longer period of polishing work at a constant speed,
the trigger can be locked. The pad then rotates at the maximum rpm allowed by
the selected speed level.
Secure and fast: the spindle lock allows the backing pads to be changed easily
with no tools required. The slightly lowered position of the button prevents it
being pressed while polishing, and the sophisticated mechanical design
provides protection for the gearing as well.
The minimal distance from the pad to the tool body allows more sensitive
control when polishing, reducing the risk of the tool tipping over. The back of
the housing functions as a secure rest point, so that the polishing pad and the
surface on which the tool is rested are not dirtied.
Constantly high performance: the dust fi lter protects the motor from dir t and
dust. Together with the temperature-dependent overload protection, it ensures
longer service life.
Compact and ergonomic: the SHINEX weighs just 2.1 kg. Pleasant soft-grip
material and the tool’s slim design make for a secure hold in any position.
Sturdy and durable: the abrasion-resistant PU cable.
The double reduction gearing enables polishing in a variable speed range from
400 to 2100 revolutions per minute and gives the SHINEX even better performance and resilience for long periods of use. The built-in heat sink ensures a
pleasant grip temperature as well.

The new SHINEX – because for results that
shine, you need a tool that shines.
It’s a subtle effect which turns a
bright coat of paint into a surface
perfectly restored and polished to a
high gloss. The new SHINEX plays a
vital role in achieving that effect.
With its double gear reduction and
variable speed range, it enables
careful, precise polishing of sensitive paintwork. The SHINEX has
enough power to cover large
surfaces, and also demonstrates
great flexibility when polishing
hard-to-reach edges, curves and
deep-set corrugations.
Its ergonomic, compact shape and
variety of gripping options allow the
SHINEX to be guided securely and
comfortably throughout the entire
task. It lies perfectly on the surface
in any situation and with a total
weight of just 2.1 kg even long
polishing jobs won’t leave you
exhausted.
The SHINEX is also outstanding
when it comes to preparation work:
for example when changing backing
pads using the spindle lock, with no
tools required. Or when changing
the polishing pad, by conveniently
resting the SHINEX on the back of
its housing.
A variety of gripping positions allow the SHINEX to be guided comfortably and optimally in any situation. Giving
you a per fect surface more easily and in less time.
