Fallvec 0 seconds ago I would love to have an eco pro 2, I got an jfj easy pro and changing pads and cleaning the disc afterwards is a pain, and not always get the job done, I have to the the same process until the game works correctly, specially the ps1, the jfj is a 200$ machine and the eco pro 2 is 1,400$, I need to start saving
this is amazing you get what you pay for I seen the hefty price tag on one of these bad boys but I gotta say worth every penny this company has sum amazing machines they have have 50 disc machine and a 500 disc machine no price tag on that one it says on there web page call for price tag lol must be enough to fant . have a question do you take customers still please let me know thank you for your great videos .
Not anymore for customers but there’s a lot of eBay mail in services that use the 50 disc machines models. Even call your local game stores and ask what machine they use they might use the one in the video. 50 disc one is an eco master brand new it’s about $22K, used $8500 starting 500 disc one is eco super which I’ve seen usually about $90K used
Eco Pro 2 owner here - I'm very tempted to upgrade but I am very turned off by the scratches in the inner ring. Frankly, it looks very bad in this video, is it just the lighting that makes it look worse? And in your other videos, it seems to not be as bad... does it depend on the stages used? Like you mentioned, the Eco Pro's finish is not PRISTINE even with the mirror pads... but the inner ring is untouched. I was offered a deep discount on the Auto Smart but am stuck on the dilemma of "better finish with messed up ring" vs "okay finish with untouched ring". Any input you have on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for making these informative demo vids!
I’m very picky, my lighting is very bright. What I’ll do is run the AutoSmart for whatever cycle the disc would need then always run the disc again once more with a level 1 to have a cleaner finish. As for the inner ring, to minimize that I reccomend spraying that rubber Center seal with some water before doing every disc.
Get a small cd spray bottle and fill with water, every few discs spray the sandpaper pads and wipe off white build up with your finger, it will give a better finish without having to do multiple polish stages.
@@jccigarsandvape Btw, the scratches left around inner ring are caused by the disc clamp not the pads. Eco pro doesn't do it cause it has no disc clamp. JFJ can be avoided by putting something between disc clamp before tightening. Disc go devil has 2 types of disc clamp, a brown rubber + soft black silicone. The black one holds disc more with suction than pressure and doesn't leave marks around like brown one. VMI hybrid uses suction type too. The disc clamp in auto smart looks like its the pressure type made of a harder material. They can loses grip during repair because of liquid, or if it starts getting worn then the disc spins around the clamp, instead of the disc+clamp spinning the disc clamps bearings, causing the scratches.
Wow they look flawless! Is there any way I can mail you just 1 game to repair?

That’s what I do 😉
Sometimes tho I’ll give it two polish stages because the pad is worn too.

my friend is selling me one like yours for $2400 is that a good price or should I negotiate
Have you ever sent one in for repair/needs refurbished? Thinking of picking up a used one locally worried about future cost for servicing.
Nope, never have so far in the 1.5 years of using it. And I use it everyday
@@jccigarsandvape That is great news to hear thanks you. Thank you so much for taking time to respond also.
is this machine worth the money ? and what water do you add on the gallon
Yes if you do a lot of discs and/or get a lot of heavily scratched ones definitely. You use distilled water NOT spring or demineralized water gallons
how to reset AL 5 for refill compound alarm
Can’t remember exactly I believe u simply hold 5 with the door open. To double check simply call ELM USA.
Does anyone know if the company that makes this (ELM USA) goes out of business, can the pads be obtained elsewhere or is it proprietary?
They are reusable, but they probably would not go out of business for a while.
They are not reusable lol. And yes I have the grit, you can make your own.
