Thumbs up BIG NEWS- The Ultimate Detailing Machine



After intense beta testing by many people, including Max, we are proud to announce that Autogeek.net and all PBMA websites will be carrying Ultimate Detailing Machine random orbital polisher.

The Ultimate Detailing Machine will be offered as the machine itself, grouped with pads, and grouped with pads and chemicals, similar to the Porter Cable 7424. As for the Porter Cable, we will continue to carry it as it is a very good machine. People looking to step up to a more aggressive machine than the Porter Cable 7424 and still want the user-friendly aspect of an orbital polisher will be very pleased with the Ultimate Detailing Machine.

Max and David Byron agree that this machine offers the user a more powerful machine but without some of the risks of a rotary. We’re so confident in the Ultimate Detailing Machine that we’ve pre-ordered 1800 units for our first shipment, estimated to arrive June 1.

Here’s the info on the Ultimate Detailing Machine released by David:


Ultimate Detailing Machine(TM)
The new machine will be called the Ultimate Detailing Machine it will feature:

1. 5.5 AMP motor (20% more power than the Porter Cable 7424)
2. Very high quality concentric offset, full floating head that is perfectly balanced
3. Variable speed from 2,000 to 6,000 OPM
4. Side handle
5. Heavy duty power cord, switch and speed control
6. Rubberized coating
7. Two color canvas bag
8. Full color 24 page manual
9. Wrench
10. 1 year replacement warranty w/ 5 year upgrade option

Parts are manufactured for us in China and Mexico. Final assembly and testing will be at the ARC of San Diego facility, where we will employ a number of adults with learning disabilities full-time on this product line (production and refurbishing).

Capabilities

To say that this is simply a "clone" of the Porter Cable would not give credit to the many improvements and the significantly improved capabilities. In short, this machine offers 90% of the polishing capabilities of a good rotary without the potential hazards. The combination of the more powerful motor and the vastly improved head unit allow this machine to work polishes harder than any other electric orbital on the market, yet the machine is smooth enough to operate with one hand at full speed.

Sales Channel
The list price on a basic loaded kit (as described above) will be $149.95. This list price will allow us to put the product into the reseller channel and manage very high quality and superior service.

Availability
We have stepped up production to have this product into the reseller channel in limited quantity before the end of May (USA) and in full scale production by the end of June. Distribution to the UK will be in June. ROW markets are to be determined later this year.

Markets
Initially we will produce a North American version (120v/60Hz) and a UK version (220-240v/50Hz). We stepped up production to have this product into the reseller channel in limited quantity before the end of May and in full scale production by the end of June. We are having the device certified for all markets we enter.

Accessories
The Ultimate Detailing Machine brand will offer a full range of backing plates, polishing pads, bonnets, brushes and other devices to clean, polish and wax vehicles. We will innovate new products that offer more utility from the Ultimate Detailing Machine.

There is two ways you can win one of these polishers....

Are Edge pads compatible with the UDM? If so is the adapter the same or a different size?

Glad to hear that AG will be carrying this. I have always wanted a speed 7 on my PC ... well a whole new, more powerful machine could do the trick !! Do you know if AG will be taking pre-orders?

David, the owner Autopia, is coming out with all sorts of things, the Ultima line of detail products, Poly Charger, this machine, etc.

Black and Decker owns Porter Cable now and they have been pulling the PC7336 from Lowe's, so, so be it. The PC7424 and 7336 must not be a big seller compared to their other machines. Can't wait to try this machine out especially since it's designed to be a polisher...
