    Re: GG compared to Meguire's. Also PCxp.

    Ya i figured megs would send a box out kinda like microsoft does for the xbox 360 rrod, but one could only be so lucky. Im glad i still have the g100 to use in the mean time (along with my dusty dewalt rotary) but im still peeved that I have been a couple months without the machine (lean operation hasnt allowed the budget for it to be shipped until now.)

    As far as the video, you definitely get the idea as to the g110v2's abilities.

    Good video. Is that the DA Microfiber Disc?

    I wonder which machine has the least vibrations to the hand and least noise.

    It's unacceptable for a mass produced tool not be UL listed these days. My Griot's DA is parked until a listing is proven.
    The GG6 is CE listed and approved... According to what Griot's said the CE listing is a higher standard than the UL listing... and according to CE listings they are not required to place labels on the equipment...

    Yeah, it's a 5.5" MF cutting pad and I was using D300. Backing plate is the Meguiar's W67DA.

    Noise wise I'm betting they're all about the same. Not sure on the vibrations.

    i dont get why some people are calling the pc7424xp / g110v2 weak... i own the pc. and Ive bared down on it extremely hard still rotated . used it on plenty of curves no issue u just have to make sure all the force isn't focused on say an edge of the pad. u hold it flat there's no problem. actually really easy. way i see it. any of the 3 will work the same. and accomplish the same. if used the same. all 3 can do amazing work. if used correctly. and all 3 can give bad results if used incorrectly.

    i think alot of this ^ is that ppl are trying to do the "kbm" by applying full body weight.... now, i can't say that i understand kevins method 100%, but i'm pretty sure "full body weight" was not his intentions when he said to apply "heavy pressure"

    the main reason i choose the gg6 is because of its lifetime warranty. i tend to be a bit rough on things

    as for power.....

    i never run the machine past level 5 anyway, as it tends to get abit squirrly on 6

    Re: GG compared to Meguire's. Also PCxp.

    I have had all these machines except for the g110v2. I go threw on a monthly basis 1-2 machines in the high volume part of my business. We beat the crap out of them. From my personal exsperiance, the porter cable machines are junk. I went threw 4 in one month. I later went to the griots machine and they were better, but not as strong as the surehold polisher. The two currently I have are going strong on 3 months of hard labor. 50 hours a week solid. I was actually talking to Jason Rose about the issues I have with all these machines and Porscheguy brought up a very huge factor about the g110v2 being UL listed. Jason Rose has told me about what is done to get approved and I was impressed. My next machines will be the g110v2 if these surehold polishers take a dump. Here is a photo of myself with Jason Rose and Kevin Brown at dinner the night of discussion. Also in this picture is David Fermani, Grant Liben, Tunch Goren from 3D and Ben from 3D.





    Im curious if there is anyone else out there who uses these machine as hard as we do. If so do they have the new g110v2? I'd love to hear there feedback.

    How about you and yours?

    BTW...Whats up with the one plate of food on that table? Looks like Kevin was the only one with an appetite... and that waiter, is like "14 drinks and one appetizer"
