Abstract: A device for polishing metallic workpiece surfaces. The device includes a tool holder which can be exchangeably fitted into a rotationally driven working spindle of a program-controlled milling machine, and a polishing tool, which is fastened in the tool holder. The device also includes a tool shank and a polishing head at the free end thereof, and is coupled to a polishing agent supply which arrives at the effective surface of the polishing head. The tool shank contains a chamber, which can admit a pressure medium and is at least partially filled with the polishing agent, wherein this chamber is in connection with the polishing head by way of a channel and wherein the polishing head has polishing agent permeable material or it contains passages for the polishing agent that is forced out of the chamber.
