All the Meguiars stuff I've used has been very good. You do seem to get a lot of kit for the money with there.

Fairly decent sized bottles too so should last a good amount of time.

Doesn't seem to mention power anywhere.

Hmmm You want to know really. It could make the diffeence between you using it when you receive it, or wishing you neer bought it at all.

It looks like it could be a fairly competent piece of kit but id prefer a proper variable speed polisher any day of the week, and yes i am a valeter by trade:thumb:

G220 is a 240v polisher :thumb:

I'd say its a good price - the polisher alone usually retails for around £125-150.

When shopping for a machine polisher I read bad reports on the G220's reliability and bought a Kestrel DAS-6 as it had great reviews (only negative from memory is the slightly short power cable, not been a problem for me). I've been very happy with it so far. I bought mine from polishedbliss (http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/machine-polishers-and-accessories.html) they do all manner of kits and also sell the G220 too, which has 33% off at the moment.
