Those look real nice, do you mind me asking where you got them? Your car looks like my twin.

I agree, I like the Griots. The secret is do NOT use fabric softener when washing them and let them air dry.

I have the G9. There are better machines out there but for a weekend warrior like myself, the Griots is fine. I don't know if the more expensive brands have a lifetime warranty? For emergencies I...

They replaced the whole machine. One stop working after a couple of years, they sent me a new one and it didn't work right out of the box, sent a third one so far no problems.

Harbor Freight might look the same but look at their warranty, 90 days. Most of their electric tools only have a 90 day warranty, what does that tell you? Griots lifetime warranty! I had them replace...

They come with a very flat skinny wrench that you stick in between the pad & the polisher. Hold the pad with one hand turn the wrench with the other. Most grinders are the same way.

Because the backing pad disintegrated has nothing to do with the machine. I agree with Fyr, an older machine which means probably an old backing pad in which has old dried up foam. Use a vented...

I wish I could, but when you contact customer service you get who you get. I certainly don't have Richard Griots personal email address. I just posted I review on their website, hopefully someone...

I purchased it when it first came out and it was $149.99 and I had a 15% off coupon, so I paid around $127 directly from Griots. Now there are $169.00, so my guess is they're going to try and get me...

Can't go wrong with Griots, the have a lifetime guarantee on their machines ( ask Fryarms ). I also used to be an Adams guy but made the switch, Adams doesn't seem the same since Adam sold it.

You might want to think twice about it unless you have no other choice. I was thinking about one years ago when our garage was full with other cars and my insurance company told me that our home...

That was nothing but an Adams informercial, of course the car looks good, it's brand new ! None of those guys in that video have probably ever really done a full detail in their life. Whenever I...

Man that sucks. Maybe an old dried out pad, but by looking at the edges of the pad down near the foam, it looks like it's had some hard use. It's all chewed up, like it's been forced into some hard...

I have read that you should not put your MF in the dryer because if you use dryer sheets with other loads it will still get on your MF. I have always air dried mine and they come out fine. I also saw...
