I have been using the griots garage 6" DA for quite some time now, roughly 5-6 years. I have had many stop working while under use, carbon brushes need to be replaced....no biggie, its a simple swap and takes less than 5 min and the machine fires right back up and works until they go out...

Looking for a better replacement. I have about 12 hours on the machine, and brand new pads are slipping off. I heard there is a blue one available that is pretty stout and more "sticky"? anyone have a link?

what are you charging? how are you charging? what are you using? what is expected protection time on the hull vs on the top sides?

what is out there? anyone have great tips for higher volume detailing? Leather, carpet, fabric, plastic cleaning. I have seen some huge turn arounds, but im wondering how to do them in the most efficient manner

Where can I get just the carbon brushes for the 6" da? I'd rather not have to send in my polishers just for brushes again. (Although it's nice you get a new machine and an extra set of brushes, I don't like the 2 to 3 week turn around time) I called last week and the guy said they don't sell...

Need a recommendation for interior cleanings. One for use with an extractor, and one for use without an extractor. While I liked the 3D upholstery cleaner in the aerosol can, its way too expensive for how much use you get out of it. I got 5 mats from it, thats it. APC alone doesnt work here...
