I have recently purchased the mirka through my local Sherwin Williams rep. It must be the updated model because it has the additional fixing points on the pad protector. So if I had to make the choice again between the mirka or the hilti, I would go with the mirka and buy either a lighting mod, or extra abrasives with the savings. Keep up the awesome content, between you and Bob Seguin you are leading the way in demonstrating all aspects of these great drywall sanders.

Just want to throw something at you. There are Hilti stores, reps, and excellent customer service whereas Mirka doesn't have any of those things. The Mirka rep in my area couldn't even find me a local distributor to special order the lerros. This sales rep was all talk and completely drop the ball never heard from him again. In the first 20 seconds of talking to him I told him I'm ready to buy, I need you to facilitate the purchase. The rep told me he wanted to barbecue and give me a bunch of free abrasive pads. And then completely fell off the face of the Earth. That said, my Hilti rep holds it down and so does the company. one more thing it's worth buying the hilty over the Mirka because of the hilty warranty alone. Look into it

Thanks for the review bro. I think I will be going for the Hilti sander and vacuum since there’s a store like 5min away from me. Even though I just need the vacuum I do want the sander for those ceiling. I’m tired of of the sander sometimes digging to much when trying to have it straight.

I wandering if you notice any finish quality issues with the planex2? We have a brand new system, got the interface pad as well. I notice that the leading edge of the sanding surface flairs in and leaves slight sanding grooves or ruts. Very noticeable with the heads light. Thoughts?

I have walls with a similar finish to the walls on the video at 8:40. Will these tools remove that finish? Also….the porter cable is the only brand I’m seeing available for rental near me. Is it able to tackle the job? I have 1500 sq ft to do.

That one day repair is a little misleading because it doesn't include the time to ship it both ways. I talked to the rep and he said it's more like a week. So I'm not sure if it's worth it to pay more for the Hilti vs the Mirka, especially now that the Mirka has all of the updates that the Hilti has.

@chirish09 2 жыл бұрын

How does it perform right against edges? Makita has a swivel head with rollers for hitting edges. Would you say that one feature is better? How would you rate the makita overall? I have plenty of drywall ahead of me but I’m not a pro. If the makita doesn’t fight you on ceilings and overall, then The cost savings plus battery capability could be worth it. Thoughts?

Hey Memo. Good videos for these sanders. Quick question, is the Hilti hose compatible with the Mirka dust extractor? I'm not sure if you have a Mirka extractor cus I've seen u use it with your DeWalt only. I guess you could tell by comparing both hoses (Hilti and Mirka). Are they identical as the sanders are?

Thanks for the reviews. Just a comment on Hilti here in canada, at least where I live. There is no shop or store, only a sales rep, so not so sure how warranty would work here. Hard to understand why your having problem with your mirka pad, on mine I find it almost difficult to remove, and I never get zapped. Thanks for light mod, I'm going to get a 3d clip to hold the battery, will look like it's made for the mirka.......thanks again.

I'm debating between the hilti and festool, does the suction of the festool not make it feel lighter when sanding?

@csdrywallhawaii 2 жыл бұрын

I would reach out to both separate reps and see if you could sample to see what works best. The suction is great on the festool but if you dail it all the way and stay a sec to much it's bye bye finish . Still heavier and a bit more uncomfortable for ceilings then Mirka. The festool is good if you plan on using it to remove popcorn as well. Then since it serves a dual purpose you can over look the fact that it's a bit heavier and the headmovement not as good.

I’ve been having a hard time deciding wether to go with the Hilti or the festool. I went with the hilti, along with the 8 gallon vac from Home Depot ($2700), as it was cheaper than hilti kapolei. Now that I read your comment, I’m wondering if I should return it and get the festool. Is the festool compatible with the hilti 8 gallon vac? Also, how have yours been holding up, and do you still use the plastic bags or do you use the fleece?

When I sampled it, felt heavier and ultimately went with dewalt because of all the batteries we already have but if you have the Makita platform should get the job done the same.
