Hi All,

First dry (ish) day to have a play.......

Right to start with the car doesn't have many swirls so I did not correct the paint I just added a sealant and wax with the G220.......

Process

Wash with Meg's hyper

Dried using Aldi MF Bath towel and LT

Car was clayed under a month ago so I just went straight to sealant

Chemical Guy's Wet Mirror Finish applied with Sonus SFX-3 pad.....

All the gear.....

WMF applied............

Buffed off..........

Nice Glow?!?!

Applied Colly IW 845 very thin and buffed off very easy, should last a while now.

First impressions of the G220..........

Quaility piece of kit, love it.

Ordered one of these over xmas, according to website it was despatched today :woohoo:

I bet you cannot wait!!

too true Led to believe there is much less vibration from the g220 nearly got white finger from Gilly's PC

I'm seriously tempted to go twos up with my Dad to get one of these.

How hard would it be to correct swirls etc... with it?

I was tempted to get this package;

Meguiars G220 - Complete Sonus Kit

Or would either of these be better?

Meguiars G220 - Complete Menzerna Kit

Meguiars G220 - Complete Meguiars Kit

I bought the Menz Kit, Good Kit but the pads are quite firm...... I'm going to buy some more sonus pads for finishing products......

The menz kit would be great at removing swirls but remember use the least aggressive and move up........HTH:thumbup:

Nearly got white finger from Gilly's PC

Does around £150 seem to be about the best price for the G220, or has anyone done better?

I hear the US version (G110) is $150

You would be correct.

Megs worked out how much an imported PC and a transformer was and priced it there at £150

The US G110 is $150, so it shows quite how much we are being bent over.

Even allowing for overheads etc I would have said £99 for the G220 or £130-£150 with pads and polishes would have been a fair price.

That is the main reason I haven't actually bought one and probably won't for the foreseeable future.

Hmmmm - I'm off to the States again in a couple of weeks!

At $149 for a G110, I reckon I can buy a transformer and still be in pocket. Am I right in thinking £40 - 50 for one?

Still bloody annoying how much we get ripped off in this country. All the Megs products in the US are around half UK price.

I think £50 is about right, have a look at screwfix and treat that as a max price, just don't forget you have to potentially deal with import tax

Anyway everyone knows $1 = £1, so the prices must be fair
