You must be busy if you can polish 2 a day. I just have to do it as and when depending on the weather. I can polish them more often by hand quickly to keep them topped up but have to wait for a good day to use my polisher. I gave my spare model C free to my friend james down south. In fact I give most of my spare bits to him to help give me space;-)) Let us know when you want to spill your other news!!;-)) Off to bed now work tomorrow.:-)) james |

Hi Terry, For polishing my kirby's from when I get them I use my bench grinder I got from my friend who is(or was) a kirby distributor. With a commpound/s and for a quick polish once that has been done just to keep them looking good I use Autosol. Arr mr Seamus. Hope your ok.You never know when when you might be getting the royal call to visit my kirby's:-)) As for the Sentria Vs G6 thread Iv'e seen it. If you get me started I'll find it hard to stop;-)) But the Sentria is the better kirby For proformance and durability. Sentria handles are better built I'v never geard of one snapping. Sentria and G sixs brush rolls are different. Mind you so are the Ultimate Gs and the sentria. So yes the sentria is the better kirby. But I do love the Gsix as that's what I was demoing when I was in kirby and I do like the color black on a kirby. And "ANY" kirby is better than the mordern plastic junk on the market!! Hay Ho!! over and out:-)) |

James, I always enjoy looking at your Kirby's. I have never seen the whole picture for real. Wish you were closer to Ohio. So I could drive to see them in person! Norm |

Hi Norm. If you ever come on vacation to the UK you could come and see them if you was in the area. Hi Terry, Yep get a bench grinder with good quality mops and compound. Hi Jack. From what I can tell the sentria is still built to the same high quality as its older counter parts. When you look at the handle side on it is thicker than the G series. Best thing they have done is re design the bottom cord hook and made it thinker as that was the weak spot on the G series with people snapping them off. Uummm I still prefur the new light. As you don't have to replace it like you do with those small G series bulbs. Also the new LEDs are more energy saving. I got the new handi butler for the sentria the other day it looks great. Don't think I will use it. As I don't want to get it dirty;-)) jb |
