Ok, I've read through most if not all the threads/postings referencing these three models. A few ad-hoc demo's of final results shown by new product buyers, but no real comparisons of performance, side-by-side, short of documented specs.
The question I have is short and sweet. Comparing apples to apples regarding usability & flexibility, usable power & torque, features & design, durability & safety; Throwing warrantees out the window, using the same car, same polishing/finishing pads & product. Which model out does the others? if any?
I've read "The Art of Detailing, seen all the Manufacurer's marketing material available onthe net, even got hold of the Gloss-it How To's, Maguiar's Training, and viewed many seasoned professionals How To's.
The one most consistent thing is that one tool doesn't do it all and when you get to a certain level, you invest in more than one tool. I realize that. I want to know, by compared results which is "The Most Usable" tool.
Im looking for details in a true "bake-off"; a non-bias comparison.
In reading...
PC - name brand, history of proven durability, lack of power but safe; so good it's been the platform to clone. Does that make for better competition when they provide added features to the already great base model? Tons of uploads of proof, but most posts include this product as an additional tool in the arsenal for the posted result.
GG6 - Semi-new to the market. But not so new that there shouldn't be posted comparisons/results by now. Similar to PC but has more raw power (better motor) is torque included in that? How much of this added power is usable? When is it usable? How/When do you benefit? No traceable uploads other than marketing.
G110v2 - Great Name Brand also, but more for whats on the pad. Similar to the PC but has more torque with the digital "cruise control" feedback electronic intelligence. How's this feature compare to the torque of the other two? Is it truly an advantage? when? Bushing maintenance access... etc. Limited traceable uploads.
Compared options/differences, if any?
Best performance/results with specific backing plates?
Since the baseline of these models originate from the same source does the added features/enhancements provide better final results with specific combinations of technology?
The only true bake-off that i saw included the Makita B06040 which supposedly won, but I later read it was a failed test due to lack of control during prep, tool setup, and operator consistency.
If I could afford it I would do it myself from a noob's perspective but unfortunately I do not have the resources.
Thus why Im posting this to you all...
Ok, maybe a few more questions germinated while I was in the heat of posting ;) But all the same, much thanks in advance...
