My personal recommendation would be the Griots.
There is not a big difference in sound level between the two machines, but as mentioned each has a unique tone.

yeah! i agree with you i'm going to go with the Griots because of that lifetime warranty! :dblthumb2:

But I wasn't talking about simply IPA. CG Wash N Gloss at the higher dilution ratio to strip LSP, and then IPA. Wouldn't that be different than just simply IPA? Or would we still need Wurth?

Mike has a very in-depth article on chemically stripping paint. If you want to know the technicalities of it, I would definitely recommend checking it out.

How does EXO compare to that of the Higher-end Carnauba waxes as far as shine goes?

I use my Griots 6" and 3" DA's most frequently out of all of my machines.

It looks like EXO creates a hard-as-nails, glass-like shimmer. A high-end carnauba paste wax produces more of a deep wet look. The former definitely compliments the paint on Hink's Mustang nicely.

we have many top level detailers over here in the UK switching away from carnauba to this. EXO addresses the common criticisms of sealants by offering a great slick finish and a very wet look.

then you get a bunch of other advantages such as durability and great dirt repellency (we have two formula one teams using it to keep aero surfaces clean - they tested 100s of products before settling on exo), uv resistance and some scratch resistance.

So you will not need say Fuzion and/or a sealant while using this product?
