Griots DA
So when I started doing detailing on my own cars I started with a Porter Cable. Used that for a few years before Hurricane Sandy took it from me. Since money was real tight I replaced it with the Harbor Freight DA. This I still have and it still is going strong but had an itch for an upgrade. So after doing some reading on the board I bought the Griots DA today at Advance Auto. With their 20% off for online orders it came to $120 with tax. So hoping this one lives up to the reviews. I will be trying it out tomorrow on the wifes car. We'll see how it goes

Re: Griots DA
I did same thing last Saturday. It is with the upgrade. I used code trt30 and got 30% off and paid $106. Someone else posted saying there is a $50 off coupon as well. Either way it is worth the money

Re: Griots DA
compared to other traditional PC style DA's, you will see why the GG6 is a step above them. lots of torque and power (warranty), have fun and enjoy it!
btw, GG has a huge announcement on the 6/6 (iirc) and who knows if it will be a new DA/polisher, so keep your eyes and ears open...

Re: Griots DA
So I detailed the wifes car this morning. It wasn't in bad shape as it is a 2013 but it needed doing. Used the Griot's machine and it worked flawlessly. Much more power than I expected. I couldn't get the pad to stop rotating no matter what I did. The PC and the HF had to be finessed to keep the pad spinning. I gotta say I am impressed so far.

Re: Griots DA
^ good to hear, glad you like it...
that's why if anyone is looking to get a PC style DA and want something with a little more power/torque
and excellent warranty should look into a GG6. can't say it enough...

Re: Griots DA
Really like mine. Griot's did a fine job with this machine. I do see myself getting a Flex in the future sometime, but with the GG6, 3 backing plates, 6", 5" & 3" and a plethora of pads, the only obstacle is overall correction time. I'm good for now.
Peace,
