Hey guys,
My G110v2 came in about 2 weeks ago and decided that I would give it a test drive on the wife's minivan. I washed with Megs Gold class, clayed (boy did it need it!!), Ultimate Polish (Yellow pad), the Ultimate Wax (Black Finishing Pad). When applying the polish, the DA appeared to have some problems running on Speed 4. I would lay the pad down flat on the hood to work a small area and turn it on. It would start up, run for a few seconds then the RPMs would come down to almost a stop and then they would come back up (applying very little pressure). This happened for a few minutes or so. I noticed that the speed dial (4) was not exactly in the middle, it was up towards the top a litle bit. Is the speed control pretty sensative when it comes to exact placement (middle). I used it on Speed setting 5 for some trouble areas and everything workged great! The only issue I had seemed to be on setting 4. When I applied the Wax on 3 it ran flawlessly. Im just curious if maybe it needed to be broken in a little bit or maybe just the speed dial is pretty sensative.
The other question I have it that I am looking at getting the W63 backing plate with some 4" pads to do bumpers and pillars and small areas. The W63 says it uses a Velcro Hook and Loop attachments system. Is this the same for the backing plate that came with the G110v2 and 7" pads to where the just velcro on?
I was pretty impressed with the G110 pretty easy to use and it appears that I did not do any damage to the wifes mini. The van looked great but since it is white it just didnt pop like a darker vehicle would have. Then again it might have been user error.
Thanks
