    Mildly temped for wax spreading duty. Might make using fk1000p enjoyable.

    I used it applying an AIO on wife`s CTS and worked great. I bought the pgk which included xtra battery. I bought this like I bought other expensive waxes, spray detailers, MF towels.

    Re: OMG can this wireless polisher really work?

    I have this polisher. AIO or finishing polish work GREAT with it. The only problem is if you plan on using either you will need 3 batteries worth of power. 2 at a MINIMUM with the 1st one on the charger immediately after taking it off the machine.

    It DOES correct with PF2500. No doubt about it.

    What it does do really well is apply wax or a sealant. Its so nice being able to do this without a cord.

    Ive been VERY temped to modify one of my Milwaukee M12 XC4.0 battery to fit the machine. The connections are about identical. I`m pretty sure all these lithium batteries are coming from the same place in china as the case`s and connection points on the milwaukee , dewalts and just about all the other newer style tools and batteries are identical.

    jesse did a quick review on the polisher. I would like to have one since you can never have too much detailing stuff, but think an extra back up battery or two is a must.

    I wouldn`t call that a review for 3 reason :

    1: about as much useful detailed information as reading the description on the box

    2: they are selling the product

    3: the battery DOES NOT LAST 45 minutes ! Maybe if you hit the on switch, turned it upside down and went out for your lunch break it might still be spinning when you get back, most likely VERY slowly. lol

    Re: OMG can this wireless polisher really work?

    I`m on a two week road trip and packed my Griot`s Cordless for some weekend detailing. The sun was out Sunday in Springfield MO and with a large shaded carport at a commercial building across the street from my hotel I was set. After a trip to the quarter wash down the street, I broke out the cordless and Zaino AIO. The white minivan had collected a lot of road tar down the sides and I took a lot longer buffing it then I usually do. The first battery lasted 3/4 around the Honda Odyssey. I plugged in the second battery to finish a rear door, quarter panel and tailgate/bumper. I was not keeping track of the time but I can usually do the whole vehicle on ONE battery. I should have snapped a photo of my setup....but let`s be real....A detailed minivan is boring next to a detailed Corvette. I sell office chairs so I used one for rolling around the vehicle.
    I`m still loving my Griot`s cordless and would buy it again in a heart beat.
