  • Small issue with my G110

    Well I finally got to break out my G110, and it works amazingly well, but I did run into an issue; kind of a hiccup if you will. 2 of the 3 screws (small black ones) that are located where the rotation takes place (where the backing plate screws into) keep working themselves out. More of a nuisance than anything because I have to stop, remove the plate, re-screw the screws back in and finally put the plate back on. Not the end of the world but my G110 likes doing it right as I am applying fresh product.

    So, I was wondering if there was a way to keep those screws in place. Maybe some form of glue that someone has heard of or should I just replace the locking washers? Can the washers be replaced by Meguiars or can someone tell me where I can pick some up at?

    This is a great machine either way and I am glad to finally have it.

            Available small tubes of Loctite threadlocker from home improvement stores and most auto parts stores.

            We use this for numerous vibration prone products.

            here is a list of most common Loctite thread locker, if you have a phillips head screw or size fastener under 1/4" use one of these:

            Loctite® 222™ ThreadlockerLow strength threadlocker for small screw.
            Loctite® 242® ThreadlockerMedium strength, general purpose threadlocker.
            Loctite® 2432™ ThreadlockerMedium strength threadlocker for active and inactive metals
            Loctite® 243™ ThreadlockerGeneral purpose, medium strength, oil resistant threadlocker


            good luck
