Griots Garage 6 inch Random Orbital Polisher Review

I ordered the Griots Garage 6 inch Random Orbital Polisher with all the polishes, waxes, pads etc and anxiously awaited it's arrival so I could detail my wife's Honda. After a very thorough wash and dry job I pulled the car in the garage, cranked up some good jazz on the sound system and spread the machine wax 3 on the pad as directed. I placed the speed switch on 4 to start with and switched the polisher on. It worked absolutely flawlessly............for about 45 seconds. After the polisher quit, I figured I just threw a breaker but that wasn't the case. I switched outlets, extension cords etc. No help. The switch seems to be the culprit as I can get it to run on speed 6 but nothing else. What a disappointment! IT IS MADE IN CHINA too. Great. I called Griot customer service and they were very sorry about the problem and are expediting a replacement to me next week and I guess that's about all I could ask for. I'm really starting to wonder if I should have bought the Porter Cable????? Just my .02. Ken
I was looking around for a random orbital machine to polish and wax my car without the risks of burning or ruining my paint. After searching and reading many reviews I decided to order this orbital directly from Griots Garage. It is AMAZING! My car is 12 years old but now has paint that looks and feels better than many show room cars at the dealers! I now have zero swirl marks, my paint is super glossy and slippery and it feels and looks better than it ever has. I ordered mine as a kit which included clay and lubricant, polish, wax, instructions, and some other small stuff. If you are looking for an orbital machine, you don't need to look any further. It is hard to be more enthusiastic about a product than I am about this and most all the rest of Griots Garage products. Its all great stuff. Looks like all the Griots Garage products on Amazon are the same price as they are directly through the Griot Garage people but sometimes you can get some free items from Griots when you order directly from them.
