    My Rotary Power Machine = Makita 9227C !

    "There is nothing better than the smell of Direct Drive Forced Rotation in the morning"

    A great 10 lb workout for the upper body when you are holding it for 8+ hours at all kinds of angles + downward pressure..

    And the Finish - Flawless...

    Remember Popeye Cartoons - Yeah, Popeye got those arms from - guess what ???

    love me some flex 3401

    i do use my griots garage for spreading wax and sealant but for any polishing and correcting, the 3401 is magic

    take the 3401 and add microfiber pads and add fg400 and finish with sf 4500 and you can correct most anything on a car

    3401 - best of all worlds

    also using mini rupes for small areas, but am thinking about getting another 3401 with small backing plate for tight areas
    Formerly the "Best Detailer", now just Super Wax Waster Man. Not necessarily tactful, but normally right. It`s good to be da King !!!

    I voted for the GG6" well because that is all I have atm. Next upgrade will be the 3401.

    It`s been some time since I even picked one up but if I did it would be Griot`s then Cyclo in that order.

    Rupes 15
    Rupes Mini

    Sold the GG6 a while ago but that used to be my go-to prior to Rupes. I`m interested to try the new flex when it comes out
