Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've been detailing my own cars by hand application for 20 years.Never used a polisher before because I always heard that applying products by hand is the best method.This was a tried and true method for me, but the car colors I've had before were white, silver, and burgundy.Pretty easy and manageable colors.Now I've finally purchased my first black car thinking that it couldn't be as hard as people say it is.Boy was I wrong!I should have looked up car care on the internet first.As one person had put it, "Caring for a black car isn't a chore, it's a second job!"Doh!Wish I read about that BEFORE I bought the black car.
After looking at the results of my first detail job on that car, there were swirls galore and weird fingerprint impressions that I couldn't buff out by hand.In fact I only made it worse as I tried to correct it.I was determined to learn how to detail a black paint finish correctly and not pay someone else to do it.After talking to some people who do professional detailing work, they said the best and easiest way to get rid of the swirls is to use a Dual Action Buffer like the Porter Cable.My first thought was "Yikes!That thing looks like it can strip the paint off the car!"Now you are probably wondering why I mentioned the Porter Cable when I'm writing a review for Meguiar's G110v2?Meguiar's is a brand I've used for years and their products are ones that I've trusted because of their easy application and awesome results.Not to say that other brands aren't good, it's just that everyone eventually becomes partial to using certain products that suits their style.The Porter Cable is a great tool, but after finding the G110v2 on the internet, I decided to take a chance on this one purely because of the Meguiar's name.Plus the video reviews on the internet were positive.
After claying the car, applying the polish (which made the car look awesome), followed by polymer sealant to protect it, the black paint looks absolutely stunning.You can tell it's stunning because pedestrians do a double-take when they see my car driving by.Not trying to brag here, they really do look!When the car's finish was ugly, nobody was looking.Now it seems to attract too much attention.I just wanted a nice clean car, I wasn't expecting a showroom stopper.It is so easy to achieve that stunning and flawless look with this machine that I regret all those years of detailing by hand.Simply put, I am never going back to my old ways of detailing.It's incredibly difficult to get the same results by hand that can be done quicker and easier with a buffing machine.
To summarize, here what you want to know:
1)Very easy to use, even if you have no prior experience with polishing buffers.You cannot screw up with this buffer.
2)Results are beyond amazing.
3)It does help to watch some how-to videos on the internet and pay close attention to their "technique".Search for "how to remove swirls" or "how to use a porter cable 7274" or simply "G110v2 review".The technique or method of using a polishing buffer is more important than the buffer itself.
4)If you choose to go with the Porter Cable, you will get the same results but keep in mind that the Porter Cable does feel "heavier" in your hands than the Meguiar's.But that is a personal preference and you should try to find a display model or a friend who has one so you can decide for yourself.The Meguiar's feels more comfortable to me, maybe due to the shape and weight distribution?
5)The G110v2 feels solid and well made.The motor is very powerful and comes with a long power cord.
6)I would buy this product again and would highly recommend it to other people.
