Your first choice Makita B06040 is not a good choice. The Variable speed control dial is (1600 - 5800 OPM; 180 - 670 RPM), this is low and would not help you out much on more of the difficult tasks of detailing

Your second choice Makita 9227CB No Load Speed - Variable Trigger - (0-3,000rpm - Dial Speed Control - 600-3,000rpm), is the better because of the range of rpm.

Your better bet is the Makita 9227CB.

You can also check Ebay and do a price comparison, you might be able to get a better deal on there and have more options in your price range.
