Meguiars G110

Has anyone tried this polisher? Can someone post up a review? Looks like a nice product. Here's a link:

I currently use the UDM and PC7424. It sounds like the G110 is similar in power to the UDM. I like the handle.

Same as the original UDM ... Has anyone done a side by side with a UDM?

Might be the way to go if its an equal seeing the new UDM is a rebranded PC.

Bringing back an older thread...

So does anyone have any experience with the G110? I'm looking to get my first machine and I am considering the G110. I have read in a few other threads on here that it's recommended over the PC/UDM due to the 4.2 amp...any other suggestions/thoughts?

I have a G110, have been using it for the past 4 months. It gets the job done.

Here's a picture of my NBP Legend after G110 and Meguiars #83 polish:

I am not generally a well rounded review giver, I know I did state that in that thread though.

I have only experience in using the G110, so nothing really to compare it to. At first it was a little intemidating, but after a few panels and the right pad/polish combination I wondered why I ever thought I couldn't handle it. The key I have found is to have a product you are comfortable working with. I have used Megs 83, 80, d151, cleaner/wax, M105, Nxt 2.0 and have been really happy. Pad selection is key like I said, I would go with a line that gradually steps up its cut rate, unlike Megs which only has two options really. I find that the multiple pad options help with stepping up what is needed while doing your test spot, instead of hardly any cut of the 9006 pad from megs, to moderate cut of the 8006 pad. I like the CCS pads ranging from the black that I have (no cut), to the yellow(moderate-heavy cut) with white and green in between. I watched probably 10 different videos on youtube about pressure, speed and all that is required for a good result. Read alot of different reviews from others too on Meguiarsonline.com, Detailingbliss.com, Autopia.com, autogeekonline.com...so alot of internet time was logged.

Any questions you might possibly have, I will try my best to help ya out.
