Ultimate Detailing Machine 1000 Paper Weight

[THERUSE]

hello,



i was wondering if anybody knows anything about a new formulation of meguiars endurance?, the one in the black bottle, not high gloss.



i bought a bottle before winter, and didn't use it until yesterday, it seemed more wattery, less gell like than the previous one i had. i like it better now, but i'm wondering if it's a new formulation.



any thoughts would be appreciated.



later,

I just did the same thing..... had a bottle from before winter that I had emptied out during a 'thaw'...... so I got a new bottle.



broke it out yesterday with a fresh eagle one tire swipe..... definitely a different formulation. I like it better as well. I dont have any definitive proof but I do agree with you. :up

i was afraid i got a bad bottle, no replys for like a day



i'm glad they did that, i hope they also stay with the new formulation :up :up

I was given the ?Ultimate Detailing Machine 1000? as a gift just last year and it gave out after many uses. I took it apart and noticed that the brushes needed replacing. I do a Google search for ?Armature Brushes? and lots of ?Porter-Cable? replacement brushes come up, but nothing as far as the correct brushes for the UDM.

I already have the Porter Cable 7424 XP for a back up, so it looks like I will be purchasing an additional PC only because I won?t have to spend hours of valuable time searching for dead ends. What happens if something else broke in the UDM and I had to get parts. I have worked on many types of machinery (small and large) so servicing something myself is generally a no brainer, that is unless parts are unavailable like they?re for the UDM.

Food for thought; before making a purchase on any type of equipment, no matter how convincing the sales pitch looks, research the product parts availability before you buy. Right now this UDM is nothing more than a disposable diaper sitting in my storage collecting dust.

If you are talking about the 'Ultimate Detailing Machine' then yes, it seems a lot of people who purchased that machine found it to be an expensive paper weight. We never carried this machine because it didn't have a UL approved label and we found the durability to be sub-standard.
