  • Buffer backorder

    Any news on when the new buffers will be available? The date on the website keeps getting pushed forward. Is the Griot's buffer the same as Meguiar's?

      Hmmm...lifetime warranty sounds good. Are they made by PC? What is the difference between Griot's and Meguiar's buffers, if you happen to know?

        Not much ,, little more power with Griot's and lifetime warranty.PC is Porter Cable,, people swear by them but it did not impress me at all. Get Griot's and you will be happy.

          Only Meguiar's has the "cruise control" feature. This feature keeps the OPMs up when pressure is applied on the polisher. It's a feedback system that tells the polisher to slightly increase the power/torque once pressure is detected.

          Here are the specs of each tool:

          G110v2:
          Power: 430Watts
          Current: 4.2Amps

          GG6:
          Power: 850Watts
          Current: 7Amps

            Cruise control is great feature and I love it but on the other hand what good is it if you can't buy one?

              Thanks for the help, guys. Need to get started on work trucks so I guess I'll go with the Griot's. Tired of waiting! Will use Meguiar's products, though. Any thoughts on Lake Country foam pads?

                Lots of guesses but as I learned after buying all kinds of Pads I finally went with "Microfiber Correction System" and results were great in 1/2 of the time. Yse I still play around with different products but D300 and D301 are some of the BEST products in my opinion.

                    I think 7" is a wrong way to start. I prefer 5". Just my opinion

                      ^ I do have a GG3 as well, along with the 3" GG pads, I also picked up some 4" pads and a slightly larger BP for the GG3.
                      I do have the 6" GG pads for my GG6 (3 waxing/3 polishing)
