    Re: Shurhold DA Polisher

    Steve, - it must be a left hand thing, kinda like when you injure that primary hand and find yourself trying to write, brush teeth etc - just feels all wrong.

    I know a few pro`s that use a rotary as a final polish machine. I know popular wisdom says you use PC or else get halograms or buffer trails as some folks call them. But, try using a pad like a LC black, blue or even red. You can use Menz PO 085 or even M105 - yes really, keep the rpms around 1000 and wow - it works. I know some guy proved it with a fancy gloss gage but I don`t remember where I read it.

    Right now I`m fighting pain in my wrist from using a PC on Saturday. I had a white Honda Pilot and it was a one-stepper, (customer wanted to keep cost low) I wish I had used the Cyclo instead!

    I was also looking for a new DA and after reading a lot on here I had decided on the GG.....until I started looking for the negatives. Lots of complaints about them dying.

    Then I saw a post from someone, brainfart and lack of time to look up who, who runs a large detail shop. He stated that he was going through GG`s in his shop too fast so he switched to the Shurhold and likes them a lot.

    I bought mine and have to agree ....nice machine.

    Thanks for the input on the Shurhold. I went with the GG a long time ago and its proven to be a work horse. I DID blow the first one apart days after I got it, but Griots stood behind it 100%. The replacement has went through more abuse than any machine should have to go through and still works perfectly. If a shop was going through them that fast, I would chalk 50% of that up to user error, absurd abuse, etc. The GG3 is a good little machine for tight areas as well. Good luck with the Shurhold and post some pics of your results with it

    Re: Shurhold DA Polisher

    The Shurhold polisher has a GFCI "ground fault circuit interrupter" that cuts off power to the unit should it become submerged or shorted by water, and the addition of a 20 foot power cord which alot of folks in the boater industry wanted in a machine.

    Why not just get the GG6--on Amazon it`s $20 less than the Shurhold, has more power and includes the lifetime warranty??
