Thanks for the update.

Can I ask a few questions/get users comments as related....

I've had a quick try with my 220...not as hard to use as expected but I suspect I may have been using too much pressure on the pads....as they have started to tear away following the line of the felt pad...so guess may not last that long....my bad??

It was on VAG paint, that just was not shifring the swirls...and there were'nt many to start with...so thought I must be using it too lightly. Probably me not using enough polish/not letting it work in etc., and the megs UK board suggest ( I now read) that as the UK one weighs more than the US one - self weight is all that's needed...in most cases.

Had a look over at detailingworld, and as I can't yet post there....but that's what it sounds like.....

Second - and most worrying - there are lots of reports of failed 220's almost a 50% fail!!! some of them on machine 3 already....has anyone here had issues?
