Question on the Griots Orbital Buffer
Ok. I have made my mind after a long consideration and research and I concluded that between the PC 7424XP and the Meguiars Orbital, that the Griots is perhaps the best one out of those two.
I already own a Flex and a regular PC 7424, this particular buffer is a gift for my nephew who is starting to learn the art of detailing.
I wanted something powerful and at the same time user friendly...
The Griots in my mind fits the bill
With that said, I'm going to order the 5" BP as I understand the Griots comes with a 6" BP...
Now the question...
What else does the Griots come with in its box?
For what I've read and was able to put together information, is it true that it comes with a pair of carbon spare brushes?
Thank you in advance

If he's going to use the Megs DA MF system, I'd get their 5" backing plate to go with it - W67A I think is the number.
