    For those who have upgraded to the BOSS

    Correct, it does......have it replaced by Griots, get the 5" plate and the HD 3" plate for it then get a GG21 or 15 (I use the 21) and you will have a complete set of DAs for any car/situation!!! https://www.griotsgarage.com/category/customer+service/customers+for+life+-+100-+guarantee.do...

    Looking for alternative ways to clean floor matts...

    I third this too! Vacuum, Pre-treat stains, spray down the whole mat with my carpet cleaner solution ( a mixture of ZEP High Traffic Spotter and ZEP Citrus Degreaser ), agitate thoroughly then pressure wash, hang to dry. I'll do this first thing for max drying time. If needed I'll put them on...

    Color pad for Griot’s Boss Finishing Sealant

    Or.......you could go with BOSS orange if there are some slight swirls and marring, there is some light correcting ability in the Finishing Sealant. Mike

    First Time with Griots 6" Random Orbital

    Welcome! The BOSS line is excellent! You don't necessarily need the whole line up, I think with the Fast Correcting, followed by Perfecting Cream will get you good results. I'd top off with the BOSS Sealant as it does have some polishing ability in it and will only further perfect the paint and...

    disinfect interior?

    I usually don't worry about disinfecting unless there is a specific area or issue. Had a BMW last week that a cat got into but couldn't get out of for a couple days. Used the right rear floor for his litter pan. Really NASTY odors there! Soaked with a commercial disinfectant (ZEP Antibacterial...

    How to machine wax your car using the Griot's Garage 6" DA Orbital Polisher

    Amazing car looking amazing!!! Love the write-ups on Griots products. I'm almost exclusively a Griots user (being 20 minutes from Tacoma doesn't hurt). All of their products just ...work, and very well too! Their AIO (One Step Sealant), even with a MF pad or a White BOSS pad just dosent have...

    Meguiars D151 Paint Reconditioning Cream

    Never had that problem.....possible you are working it too long and it's drying out. 2x2 sections keeps it dustless for me. Mike

    Meguiars D151 Paint Reconditioning Cream

    151 is great for sure! Here is a hood on a '97 Silverado ( with 402k on it BTW!! ). Used with a G21 and BOSS Cutting pad. There is quite a difference between the worked and unworked half of the hood. This is with 5-6 passes, it was a quick polish on the truck, just a work truck (owner didnt want...

    Usually, don't brag about my work, just let the shine speak for itself, but this came out so good that I impressed myself! 2015 Mazda 6 that has been under attack from a sprinkler system for the last couple months twice a day. The city water is very hard as you can see. The owner takes very good...

    Generator/Pressure Washer problems

    I've been using a Ryobi 1700psi / 1.2gpm pressure washer for a couple years now with my EU2000i. The washer is a 13 amp unit as well and I have had no issues at all with it and it's running the water pump too! The Greenworks needing a higher starting amperage maybe?

    Boss MF pad issue

    I use BOSS pads exclusively with the whole system......looks like too much product and/or not cleaning pad out after every section. I had a few do this....started using air to blow out pads and have had no issues. The other thing it could possibly be it edging up against an emblem or...
