The Mini and MKII’s are super powerful and best in class, don’t see any changes there for the foreseeable future.

As is a modded Duetto.

It's almost in usable with green/blue pads/compounds with the anti-spin disengaged. I have to dot my pads further towards the center to minimize splatter.

Works great with microfiber and yellow/white foam.

I figure since the mini doesn't have an anti-spin feature... Why should the Duetto?

At the very least I now use it as an option. Helps not having to fuss with regreasing the shroud periodically.

the GG looks like a pump sprayer with an adjustment (on the side) from spray to foam (very cool if it is). this sprayer below has an up/down spray pattern to get into areas without having to tilt it (don't know why more who have these out do the same). there's also one that comes with an extension...

I have these solo sprayers and they are my favorite pump sprayers

Will I be able to use a 2” backing plate and 2” pads on my gg6? I am planning on retiring the gg6 over the winter from being my go to, as I’m purchasing a g21. Was originally thinking of using 3” plate on it for tight areas, but if I could use 2” that’d be even better.

After watching the video and seeing the press release on Gyeon One, I can't help but wonder if it replaces Prime.

I dont recall seeing a 2" DA backing plate so I ended up w/ a 1" rotary backing plate and the adaptor that several pad companies sell to convert the threads. I use a GG3 and GG6.

Optimum announced a reformulated Poli Seal yesterday, a new clay mitt and towel, and the big gold sponge for the ONR in their maintenance line. Supposedly the gold sponge is softer than the red and will cost more.

Gyeon announced a new compound.

Also their new packaging for these three which looks great. No more bags.

i wouldn't use the 2" backing plate and pads on the GG6. it will be too top heavy (too much torque) and cause both/either the backing plate and pads to separate/fail. it would probably be suited to use with the GG3...

I'll have to watch the video from home. Do you have any other information on this new enthusiast line? A little bit of digging didn't reveal anything beyond their current products. The more I see, the more this brand grabs my attention.
