So many questions with this product. I know Dana is working on writing up a protocol for the use. I think the best thing that could be done, to answer all the questions is a video. The first part should be a non hyped history of the product, clarifying the past versions and discussing the current version. Almost like a documentary. Then showing how to use the new version. If someone can SEE a floor being done, with no pause in the recording, that would end all doubt. For now it is all hearsay and that depends heavily on the person. We all respect Fred and John tremendously and that is valuable testimony, but seeing is believing. I personally can't wait to try them out!

Our testing will be done both commercial and residential, seeing we have the service side of our business we have the opportunities to test in our training facility but to also test on our commercial maintenance properties and test when we are doing residential jobs. Our testing is not restricted to the our training facility.

Hello Pro Partners

 

I think I John is too busy,  they should send out the puck  for the testing to any member for 1Day and let us send them the feed back?

 

Information would have to be in formation that all of us can see how the testing was done.

 

I think any new item needs to be field tested and proven by all of us that want to  test new items.

 

Hector Castillo

 

I would like feedback from any SCCpartners.

I have to chime in on all the conversations about monkey pads and cheetah pucks

and all the MARKETING HYPE about this stuff. back in january or december i fianally

decided to try some of DANA,S monkey pads and cheetah pads/pucks on a project

i had coming up so i spent about 600 buck purchasing the full set of eight inch monkey

pads 200,400,800,1500,3000,8000,11000 and also the full set of 8 inch cheetah pads

they are more like an 8 inch puck to me.

the 200 grit monkey pad in a shower were a dismal disappointment they did not have any value in that experience so back

on the shelf in the trailer it went.

same shower 8 inch cheetah puck this did resurface the wall and i went thru the whole set to see the results and it was just ok.

but when i used a regular 200,400,800.1800 grit 8 inch turbo diamond pad from stone care central that cost me only 25 bucks each
i got a faster result and a better looking finish on the same travertine shower

i have had some jobs where the monkey and or twister pads have been ok to use and got the desired results always a honed only or a high hone only finish they are in my opinion only good for that type of finish because they lack the CLARITY and REFLECTION that true professionals require of polish stone work.. why anyone thinks the cheetah pads a the second coming of easy better faster is certainly not what i experience in any of my testing results and i don't appreciate DANA coming on to HYPE product that is no better than what we have all used in the past. has anyone noticed the new pucks look more and more like resins mounted to a 3 m pad. i velcro 3 inch

diamonds to hogs hair pads all the time and it works great to ride over lippage too. why spend more money for a poorer quality outcome

since they are on generation 22 or 24 i must have generation 12 since i bought them 7 or 8 months ago. so DANA i challenge you to

replace these pads with your new stuff and i will honestly test them and report unbiased results back to the pros.
