    I'm looking for info about mod's available for the ASM G-1. I've checked their site and it seems it's no longer available there.

    I found some other things on the net, but nothing very definitive. Anyone have any ideas?

    Mesh mod and gate valve are a couple mods you can do.

    I've got a G-1 and had looked into these mods. It seemed to me that all mods were designed for the G-2 or larger. Anyone know more about this?

    One is just a gate valve to fine tune the output pretty straight forward, and the other is mesh on the impeller to chop up the bubbles finer, it just needs to be replaced every so often as it wears out.

    I just got back from Lowes because we don't have a Home Depot here...I found two types of 3M pads and am wondering which one, if any, I should use. The first two pics are of a green pad, and the 2nd two pics are of a dark blue pad. Are one of these the correct one?
