Meguiar's G110v2 - 2nd Generation G110 Dual Action Polisher

Is it Christmas already?

You go out into the garage to work on a car and you come back to find presents on your desk?

What's in the box?

One thing for sure, the new W68DA backing plate is a well built backing plate with plenty of flexibility. The plate itself will outlast the Velcro hooks...

The new v2 also comes with a new and improved wrench, it feels more stout and has a nice matte black finish.

The top model is Generation I the bottom model is Generation II

The new v2 is easily identifiable by the side-port cap which you remove in order to replace the brushes...

The Gen I model does not have the side-port cap.

The new v2 is a tad longer in the body but the rest appears to be identical to the Gen I

I put her to bed with the rest of the gang, she should feel right at home snuggied between the Porter Cable 7424XP and the Griot's Garage ROP

Now I need something in horrific condition to take her for a test drive...

Mike somewhere on your box will be a sticker with the date the polisher was manufactured.

Mine says 10-15-09. Pretty neat I have never seen that before on a polisher.

Lot traceability down to the day of mfg…..

This is a very important feature in the mfg environment. If defects start occurring patterns can be established by date of mfg and can be traced to any tooling adjustments/changes if the process change records were properly maintained….

Mike, Have you had time to use this new polisher yet? Anyone else using one? I was going to buy one, I always used a rotary in the past and decided I want a new RO polisher, but it doesn't seem as popular as the PC or GG. I know it's the same old question, but would I be better off spending my money on one of the other two (PC or GG), or is is the new Meguiars keeping up? I didn't think I should start a new thread for this. I read a lot of other posts on this but I didn't see much recent info on the meg.

What's next? 3rd Generation? Were there problems that they are a making a new and improved model? I've been wanting one for awhile now.

I have not heard of any new versions by any company being released anytime soon so time to dive in now and get the one you want...

It's sure a lot faster than working by hand and you can get Pro results your first time...
