Re: Which polishers are in your arsenal?
I have a Flex and a UDM 1.0. I plan to buy a replacement for the UDM.

Re: Which polishers are in your arsenal?
I still have not decided which DA I want:
1, Griot`s - most raw power, considered less robust (plastic construction) but comes with a lifetime warranty
2. PC XP - excellent reputation for reliability
3. Meg`s G110v2 - supposed more powerful than the XP (probably not significant) but reliability is an unknown. Supposedly has some better ergonomics (bail handle,etc) but I have not used it

Re: Which polishers are in your arsenal?
I have:
Meguiar`s G100A (Porter Cable 7424)
Meguiar`s G110v2
Flex 3401 DA
Flex 3403 Rotary
Dynabrade DA (adapter mounted to a Harbor Freight rotary)
Had a Makita at one point but got rid of it because I didn`t use it much. Lately I`ve been thinking about picking up the new version of the DeWalt 849 though. Also looking forward to picking up some pneumatic polishing equipment (namely the Meguiar`s mini DA and Rotary, if they ever get released).Charlie

Re: Which polishers are in your arsenal?
I`ve had a De Walt for over 8 years and not one issue with it. My next buy is going to be a flex.
I also have a rotary that is well over 25 years old and runs great.Old Enough To Know Better, Too Stupid To Care....

Re: Which polishers are in your arsenal?
My first one came apart within the first week, Autogeek stood behind it 100% and sent my replacement VERY quickly. Not a single problem with the new one, and I run it hard every day Originally Posted by jammerz101
