Left Handed Detaling

[UncleDavy]

After going through a paint correction session this weekend I realize that power tool manufacturers cater their tools for right handed people. I used my Griots G9 and I really like the machine but as a lefty I could not activate the trigger lock button. I realize that we are only 10% of the population but why couldn't Griots add a second button to the other side of the handle? Have any of my other fellow lefty detailers noticed this?

We gotta make up more than 10% now?

But funny you mention this... never noticed this issue with my machines. But I do not have a Griots.

I guess I have a better chance of getting that left handed monkey wrench.

Im left handed too...actually ambidextrous! All sports left handed such as baseball, throw a football, ping pong, tennis, and golf. I eat and write right handed...and use a DA!

I have the same issue with my Shine Mate DA, sometimes I can use the thick part of the lowest joint on left hand index finger to squeeze the locking button in, but this doesn't work every time. Sometimes I start up right handed and switch over as I go.

Lefties Rule.

Literally!

I read somewhere that 4 of the last 6 Presidents were left handed.

I sent an email to Griots customer service. Let's see if I get a response.

American Presidents? If so, the correct term is "Under handed". ;)

Garfield, Hoover, Truman, Ford, Reagan, Bush Sr, Clinton and Obama were all left handed.

Now I’m wondering if I’m using my DAs right handed?
