So i have done a few weeks of researching and I have almost decided to purchase the GG 6" polisher (I use "almost" since I know I will change my mind few more times) but I have one question. I found some youtube videos of this polisher in action and I noticed in each one the machine is hardly turning the pad. As you can see from the video link posted below, the pad is not rotating even close to the rated specs. Is this expected and, if so, how can this possibly remove swirls?

I would also like to hear anyone's comparison between he GG and PC who have operated both since I have not yet hit the purchase button. To me, considering they both cost the same and the GG has more power and a lifetime warranty, the choice is simple. But, if you have used both and have input I would be interested in hearing.

Thanks!
