Griot's Garage: G9 Random Orbital Polisher 

KScuz If ‘overpriced’ is your only issue, it seems what you’re essentially asking for is someone to mimic the Nano and produce it with Chinese labor.

KScuz Adams did and it’s decent

Awesome! Thank you for your order!

We're so glad you're loving it!

Correct, the additional power will translate into more correcting ability. The increase in orbit size from 8 to 9mm will also provide improved paint correcting ability, while maintaining the ability to evenly apply polymers and waxes. Lastly, as before you can change out to a 5" backing plate and pad system should that be a preference.

Wilfrido Cabada What do you mean ‘the cords go out’? What aspect of them fails?

Your assumption is correct!

@@GriotsGarage I'd go out and buy one now, but..... with that little teaser at the end, we all know what's coming... a new boss line incorporating all these new features and maybe more.... so get on it griots!!! I already have a buyer for my G21... oh, and if whatever that product is isnt already in production... an orbit adjustment feature would be kinda cool... oh, and some way to put a 3 or even 2 inch backing plate on the thing would also be pretty snazzy too :)

@@dragonsystems5973 What does the boss mean?

@@jattposti8015 Best Of Show System.... Griots can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think they have the BOSS stuff positioned as their professional product lineup while the normal line is more of a prosumer product

The internet never disappoints...

In a word very! It is 1/2 pound lighter, with more ergonomic holding points, high quality bearings, and a lower center of gravity.

Will it use the same pad or are ya'll coming out with new ones?

Same pads. Both the 1"-thick, and 5/8"-thick BOSS pads are fully compatible.

Thanks for replying!

The current boss units have 15 and 21mm orbits, this has 9mm, this also has a more powerful motor, measured by wattage, but I dont know how it works out under real usage conditions. I bet for most normal users users the G9 will be a better all around tool

Very nice, we like your style!

No force rotation, it is a free spin polisher. Rated at 1000 watts. 👍👌✌

We highly recommend it!

The only backing plates available for the G9 are the 6" and 5" backing plates. It would not be recommended to try and adapt a 3" backing plate to the G9 due to the diameter of the cooling shroud. Stay tuned for any future updates on 3" solutions.

@@GriotsGarage I would love to see a purpose built professional grade 3 inch solution. I have the griots 3 inch, it is a great versatile tool, I'm not knocking it, it was cheap and technically it does its job, but obviously when you look at the price, and hold it in your hand, it isnt a professional grade tool, assuming a quality to match the price, I'd be willing to spend maybe $275-$300 on perhaps a BOSS 3in with a 2 inch backplate option an perhaps the ability to use a 5 and 6 as well for when you need the size but not the power.

9mm is the orbit size.

Thai nguyen you will need a 5” backing plate to use the 5.5” pads!

The h-d 3" backing plate is not recommended for use with the G9.

Not immediately, but it will be over the coming months. The G9 is covered by our lifetime guarantee against defect.

Gonzalo Gamez what?

Assuming that the model implies this is a 2000 watt generator - it would handle running the G9. The G9 has a 1000-watt, 8.5 amp motor.

Paolo Maniscalco just buy one instead...it’s priced fairly dude

@@BrownRooster I always do buddy, but I never put down my flex or big foot to be honest and end giving away most other polishers I buy since those 2 get jobs done in killer fashion.

Paolo Maniscalco well I’m sure you could buy it and if you don’t feel comfortable with it return it...

@MrThePrivateer Italy. I believe

Previous model (gg6) was a partnership with a Chinese mfgr. New G9 is a new Japanese partner.

All this engineering, and it’s only $150? The only way you can pull that off is with Chinese labor. I’d be happy to spend more and see an American flag on the label.
