Makita

Makita is a Nagoya, Japan-based power tool manufacturer founded in 1915, with a major US operation (Makita U.S.A., Inc.) headquartered in La Mirada, California. The brand is one of the largest power tool manufacturers globally and sells in over 40 countries. In the automotive and marine detailing space, Makita's 9227C and 9237C rotary polisher series have been professional staples for decades — praised for consistent torque, smooth speed control, and long-term durability. Makita tools sold in North America are primarily UL listed and backed by a US service network with authorized repair centers. The 9237CX3 is the current kit version of the 9237C series, bundling the polisher with wool bonnets and a tool bag.
