The unique FLEX XC 3401 VRG orbital polisher – the machine for the perfect finish!
The FLEX Orbital Polisher is a dual action polisher on steroids! The FLEX Polisher produces the same random orbital motion of other dual action buffers but the range of movement is greater. Instead of a jiggle, you get a noticeable rotation of the pad. The FLEX effectively removes swirls, scratches, and oxidation that can’t be removed using other D.A. polishers. The FLEX Polisher is one of the best polishers we’ve ever tested!
The orbital rotation of the FLEX Polisher simulates the circular movement of the human hand while polishing. This motion is less likely to cause holograms than a rotary buffer. At the same time, the polisher’s highly smooth running facilitates a careful, precise finish and allows for hologram-free polishing.
| Flawless polishing is just what the FLEX Orbital Polisher was made to do. The positive drive ensures a uniform movement, even under load, thanks to constant lift. Taken in conjunction with the large stroke length the FLEX can remove existing holograms from black finishes. The large stroke length refers to the size of the orbit. On many dual action polishers, this is a very small distance and therefore you feel a jiggling motion. On the FLEX, the stroke length is 8 mm, a huge distance in terms of orbital polishers! |

Thanks to the direct orbital drive, very little heat develops on the surface, which is ideally suited to temperature-sensitive finishes (i.e., “soft†clear coats). The FLEX Orbital Polisher makes it almost impossible to burn the paint! The accelerator trigger switch and speed selection allow for a controlled acceleration to the optimal speed. The FLEX Orbital Polisher’s smooth acceleration and uniform, controlled motion make this DA machine ideal for novices and pros alike.The FLEX Orbital Polisher is rugged like a work truck but it has sophisticated electronics, like a luxury sedan. A seven-fold microprocessor offers constant speed control by tachometer generator, soft start, accelerator trigger switch, restart protection after power interruption, overload protection, temperature monitoring, and speed selection.

As if that weren’t impressive enough, the FLEX Orbital Polisher has shut-off carbon brushes. When the carbon brushes wear down, the motor automatically shuts off to avoid damage. The FLEX Orbital Polisher can easily do most of the work for which you’d normally rely on a rotary machine, and it’s safer! The dual action nearly eliminates the risk of burns or holograms. Plus, the large stroke of 8 mm allows the polisher to cover more area faster. A 13 ft. power cord allows you to work easily around most vehicles.The FLEX Orbital Polisher has an adjustable bale handle on the top and a speed control on the side for easy access with your thumb. A speed trigger on the underside of the polisher allows you to gradually accelerate speed as needed. The FLEX Orbital Polisher weighs less than 6 pounds and has the bale handle and speed trigger positioned such that you can balance the machine with little effort. |
The FLEX comes with a 6 Inch Hook & Loop Backing Plate. This plate does work with the Lake Country 6.5 Inch Foam Pads. The FLEX Orbital Polisher is all around great machine. It is comfortable to use, well-made, and it works harder than a typical dual action polisher without putting your paint at risk of holograms. Most importantly, the FLEX Orbital Polisher eliminates swirls, scratches, and other paint flaws to leave the paint looking flawless.
