And compared to working by hand, what would you tell others that have not make the jump to machine polishing? I would tell other who have not yet made the jump to machine polishing to investigate machines, pick one, watch videos on the machine, watch Mike's video on taping up the car, and then...

Greetings, I used a DA for the first time this weekend. I used a G9 on my Kia 2007 Sportage and I only used Girots Garage One Step Sealant after a wash, clay, and dry though it did come out well. I am glad I only did a one step for it took me way longer than I thought it would and now I am...

That is the one thing I keep seeing about the G9. The warranty is great but like, this is my first machine so I do not have a backup in case it dies or me or something. Perhaps I should get the smaller one sooner rather than later so I can not have to do the small parts by hand and have a...

I cleaned, decon'd, clay bar'd, and dried my 2007 Kia Sportage yesterday. I opened my door to get my mask so I can get lunch and then try my first ever run with the G9 and but my door handle popped out haha. Mechanic us up the block so he told me to bring it in today. I did it over with Griot's...

Hi, Was hoping to use my G9 for the first time today. I am not sure if I have a trigger lock issue. I got it to work continuously once but cannot seem to get it to stick. I hold down the trigger to get it going and then press the trigger lock but it does not seem to stick etc. Any advice is...

Wow, I knew their machines had the warranty but didn't know about the pads, liquids etc. I will prob ask a few questions soon as I plan on making a bulleted list to print out for the garage when it is time. Nice to have someone here who is local and can understand my/our current weather...

Re: Greetings from Long Island, NY Welcome to AGO, John. I am out on the East End of LI. I was just out in Hempstead the other day for work. The G9 is a great machine. Have you ordered it yet? ---------------------------------------------------------- Oh cool. Yes, I ordered it as a kit...
