Re: G110v2 Issue Am i stupid or it's defect ?
Well i hope it work
But why do they provide a washer with the backing plate if it's too small. I had to switch for the one that came with the DA and it's bigger. I really hope it fix it, so i don't have to spend 30box on shipping !!!!

Oops that should 'oops"Originally posted by AkiraQc View Post
As in, a bad idea. plan or machine. An, "Ah S**t" moment, but not to be confused with an "Oh S**t" moment. This leads to personal pain, lose of income and/ or great embarrassment.
A word you never want to hear your dentist say while 'in the chair.'
Good to hear about the washer, I just didn't even think about it (and I know better).
For future reference...the phone number to customer service IS the same for Canada as the U.S. .

Re: G110v2 Issue Am i stupid or it's defect ?
I too bought one from ADS, had the same problem so I returned it and the replacement had the same issue when we tested it there on site so I now have a third. There was a bad batch is what he told me. Not sure why they won't replace it for you. Keep your speed between 4 and 5 and no need for pressure, just guide your machine on where you want it to go. The coverage space is about 2X2 area with your pads before you have to put 4 drops of more product for the next 2X2. At least thats how the rep trained me on it. I have had beautiful results each time. I don't buff, this machine saves me every time and it gives great results. It's actually a great item with the right products.Comment

uh, no.Originally posted by Pure Luxury View Post
You must apply pressure. If you don't then your not doing much. The DA is designed for buffing/grinding out paint defects and sanding wood.
If you rest it and don't apply pressure then your not doing it right and you might as well use your hands.Comment

Wonder if you don't have the defective power wire issue as well. There's a number of folks who commented about it on this forum. If you wiggle the power wire at the base of the unit, does it cut out?Comment

Re: G110v2 Issue Am i stupid or it's defect ?
Well that is good to know, they trained me otherwise. I will try putting pressure. I'll bet I'll be even happier with my results. Thank you for that! ;-) I got the machine cause I get tired of using my hands.

Re: G110v2 Issue Am i stupid or it's defect ?
OK, we're back from our Labor Day holiday weekend here in the US so we can chime in here.
First off, we're sorry to hear that you've got a problem with your G110v2 right out of the box. It is unfortunate that you had it purchased through someone who does not ship outside the US and then had it shipped to you via a friend - that always complicates things in the event of an issue with the product, whether it's a power tool, liquid product, or even if you're buying clothes, consumer electronics, toys, whatever. In most cases it's darn near impossible to get any sort of warranty satisfaction when that happens, and that can be beyond frustrating. Shipping into Canada has it's own potential problems due to the duties and fees the Canadian government imposes, and we've seen discussions on plenty of car forums where someone had an issue with a purchase and wanted a refund, including the hefty fees they paid to have the item imported. Obviously the seller isn't going to refund a government fee collected by a foreign government, and things often turn sour.
However....... we'd like to help you out as much as possible here. Please give a call to our Customer Care Center at 800.347.5700 and they can arrange for a replacement for you. Unfortunately, you are going to have to send the defective tool back but we will throw in some product (pads, Ultimate Compound, whatever) to compensate you for the cost of return shipment. Yes, it's going to take a couple of weeks for everything to get turned around and for a working tool to get into your hands, but we will take care of you on this. Again, our apologies for the inconvenience and frustration.
Now, as for the techniques needed to get the most out of the tool, you should read through this thread for pointers on size of work area, tool speed, pressure, etc. Or come take our Detailing 101 Class here in Irvine, which we know Pure Luxury is already signed up for

Re: G110v2 Issue Am i stupid or it's defect ?
Thanks Michael awsome support, il try to contact meg's customer Care center, sadly my english is not awsome so i hope they will understand me
Do you know if there any way to arrange by email ? it will be much easier for me , i can read and type very well, but i do not have the chance to speak very often since im in a French State.
Again if i have no other choice but to call, i will do it
( The reason why i bought it in usa and had it shipped over here is to save on Duties, more then 100 on a 500$ order , but again in the end i won't save much )
Thx alot for offering some product!Comment
