UDM vs PC Vibration

[FMINUS]

Is the UDM really vibrate THAT much less against the PC?
Because I just might have to jump on it if it is, I hate the numb hands!!

Yes! I'd say it vibrates around 30% less then PC, while removing more defects.
By the time I'm done detailing with PC, my hands are always numb, and I hate it.
With UDM it's a different story.

ive been told its a noticable difference ...

Its definitely a noticeable difference for sure. Like supercharged said, my hands were always numb/hurting after a detail. Not so with the UDM.

The UDM vibrates significantly less than the standard PC. Its one of the features that I love the most about it

Is my PC the only one that really isn't that bad?? I can't say that I've ever had numb/tingly hands with it. I don't use the handle though, and thats where most of it is I think.

I use a friend's PC and my hands are numb, but when i got my UDM i don't have that problem anymore.

Pats, are you basing that statement on production unit or on your unit that vibrates even less than a production unit and is not identical to production unit?

Dang it I want a UDM now....

It all depends on the product and pad combos. Smaller pads may vibrate more than larger pads or vise versa. Also people seem to be having trouble with the Edge pads and the UDM because of their added weight I guess... Just like everything else there are too many variables to tell for sure. The UDM is nice but is it justfiable if you have a PC ... not sure.

I swear, if I don't take regular breaks when polishing a vehicle my hands turns numb! I find that it makes a big difference on what pads you're using though. I have the orange 5" pads and they're a joy to work with compared with the larger 6.5" pads.
