    Awesome test Greg. Thanks for those latest results. PS if you think Colly 845 is durable, try 476. You will be even more amazed. ScottH

    All the above plus the following on our (2) daily drivers: 1. Vacuuming interior, cleaning floor mats, interior glass and conditioning leather once a week 2. Detailing engine twice a month 3. Exterior hand wash twice a week (bucket, rinseless, waterless or combination thereof) 4. Application...

    How do you handle NOT being able to wash the car? (bad weather, etc)

    I don't let winter get in the way. I wash all year round; traditional hose/soap or rinseless (pre treat with waterless). I ran warm water into my garage this year to allow for this. I could never go a few days, let alone weeks or months with salt on my cars. Never! (LOL) So they get washed...

    Paint protection....what is the best option?

    You also have the option of spray on products like McKees Hydro Ue and Blackfire’s SIO2 spray. If you are going to hand wash your truck every 1-2 months these products shine (no pun intended). I find these products particularly appealing when you have such a large vehicle. ScottH

    Review & How-to: BLACKFIRE Pro Ceramic Coating by Mike Phillips

    Mike...stellar article. Does the BF Pro Ceramic Coating harden up in the bottle after initial use? I've run into this with other coatings, making them almost unusable after the first use. I find that if I don't use the remainder within a few weeks of initial use, it gels/hardens up. So I...

    Boat Pricing

    Mark, My response isn't around pricing but rather to say be careful around things like the boat cleats, railing mounts etc. with your polisher. There are many more "things" for the polisher to get caught on vs. a car. I learned that the hard way with my PO5000C - got off my mark for a sec and...

    Forced Rotation VS Free Spinning...

    I have both the 5000C and the G15. The 5000c must be run on speed 5, it's highest setting to NOT stall under its own weight. 5 on the 5000C is like 2 on the G15. G15 runs circles around it in free spin mode. No pun intended. If you buy the 5000C do so as a gear driven machine. You will...

    Forced Rotation VS Free Spinning...

    One of the biggest differences between my gear driven Makita PO5000C and BOSS15 is smoothness and ease of use. No matter what gear driven machine you have or use, there is some element of 'pull' or 'walk' to it. It's the nature of the beast, whereas the BOSS as a free-spinning machine is...

    Griots customer service is amazing!

    ....and let me second that with the experience I had last week. My Gen 3 GG6 developed a bad vibration making it unbearable to use for more than 10 minutes. I swapped out the BP and CW and still had the bad vibration. Sent it back and within 10 days had a brand new one. Cannot beat that...
