The next big thing in the FLEX Polisher line up!

The FLEX XFE7-15 150 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher is a free-spinning, dual action paint polishing machine that embodies everything that is “FLEX”. From the same manufacturer that brought you the FLEX XC3401, the FLEX XFE7-15 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher has a 15 mm stroke length to cover more area and help you breeze through a detail. The extra cooling vents to prevent overheating, and a more streamlined, ergonomically correct body, along with the massive throw, makes the FLEX XFE7-15 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher a serious contender in the world of long throw polishers.

The FLEX XFE7-15 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher has a rounded head for a steady grip while in use.

While manufacturing the FLEX XFE7-15 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher, FLEX wanted to keep some of the familiarity that we’ve come to know and love. The overall design of the handle and body is very similar to the FLEX XC3401, but actually feels slimmer and easier to use on the FLEX XFE7-15. Rather than the standard bale handle used on other long throw polishers, the FLEX XFE7-15 features a round head, for a more firm and less strenuous grip.

The FLEX XFE7-15 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher is a free spinning model, meaning that there is no forced rotation like its older brother, the XC3401. This allowed FLEX to give the machine a longer 15 mm throw, to cover more area, faster. FLEX is already known for their high powered machines, and the XFE7-15 is a testament to this. The 6-speed motor reaches a max rate of 9,000, giving you all the bang you’ll need for a detail.

The engineers at FLEX listened to their customer while designing this new tool; brand new on the FLEX XFE7-15 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher are extra venting holes, to promote an overall cooler experience. The heat generated by such a powerful tool can be harmful to both the user and the machine, and FLEX wanted to prevent this from happening.

Use the FLEX XFE7-15 Long Stroke Orbital Polisher with Lake Country 6.5 inch Thin Pro Pads for the best paint polishing system.

Equipped with the standard FLEX trigger type mechanism, as well as a locking button for extended details, even your first use of the FLEX XFE7-15 will feel familiar.

Weighing in at only approximately 5 lbs, the FLEX XFE7-15 is lightweight enough to use for extended periods of time, and still get the correct power you want. Perfect for everyone from novices to professionals checking out what the “long throw” world has to offer, the FLEX XFE7-15 is the perfect addition to your detailing line-up.

FLEX XFE7-15 uses a backing plate that is just under 6 inches, and is ideal for use with the 6.5 inch Lake Country ThinPro Pads.

A 4-use-in-1, hyper-concentrated formula for a clean finish – without the water!

McKee’s 37 N-914 Rinseless Wash take some of the most often used formulas in the car detailing industry and combines them together in a hyper-concentrated blend for the ultimate in paint cleaning! McKee’s N-914 is more than just a rinseless wash; when diluted accordingly, N-914 can be used as a waterless wash, a clay lubricant, or a paint prep! This no-nonsense formula will not alter the look of your wax, coating, or sealant – McKee’s 37 N-914 simply leaves a clean surface behind!

When it comes to smart shopping, finding a product that gives you more bang for your buck is like winning the lottery. Imagine if you found a toothpaste that could also wash your hair, clean your face, and season your pasta – you’d never buy plain old toothpaste again! That’s the feeling you can expect to get when you try McKee’s N-914 Rinseless Wash for the first time.

McKee’s 37 N-914 Rinseless Wash owes its versatility to an advanced surfactant that creates a protective layer of lubrication and prevents marring, swirl marks, and scratches caused by dirt, grit, and synthetic clay being rubbed over the surface during cleaning.

Water restrictions caused by droughts, severe winter weather, or simply no access to an area for car washing all lead back to the use of a rinseless wash. These highly-useful formulas allow you to always have a clean finish (even without the water) and Mckee’s 37 N-914 is no exception. In fact, McKee’s has taken it a step further by turning their rinseless wash into a 4-in-1!

McKee’s 37 N-914 uses an advanced formula to clean paint of all surface debris – including oils found in polishes and compounds Yep, you read that right! You can use McKee’s 37 N-914 to prep your paint for application of a paint coating! Show me another rinseless and waterless wash/clay lubricant that can do that!

Use McKee’s 37 N-914 Rinseless Wash Formula as:

• A Rinseless Wash – Dilute 1:256
• A Waterless Wash – Dilute 1:128
• A Clay Lubricant – Dilute 1:128
• A Paint Prep – Dilute 1:8

Let’s check out the McKee’s 37 N-914 in action!

To really test the McKee’s 37 N-914 Rinseless Wash, we had to find a car with some serious dirt and grime build up. This Honda fit the bill perfectly! After adding 1 oz. of McKee’s N-914 Rinseless Wash to a 5 Gallon Bucket equipped with a Grit Guard, we added 2 gallons of water and mixed using a strong jet of water.
Look at the amount of suds were created with just 2 oz. of McKee’s 37 N-914 Rinseless Wash! Using the Ultra Soft Microfiber Rinseless Wash Mitt (designed specifically for use with a rinseless wash and adorned with long fibers perfect for grabbing dirt and grime safely), this bumper was washed thoroughly. Due to the state of this Honda’s paint, we’ve decided to keep its owner anonyomous (for obvious reasons).
Once the bumper was clean of all dirt, debris, and road grime, a 20 x 40 inch Supreme Guzzler Waffle Weave was used to both rinse and dry the freshly washed surface. As you can see, McKee’s 37 N-914 made quick cleaning work of this filthy bumper – without risk of washing induced swirls and with reduced water use!

When diluted accordingly, McKee’s 37 N-914 will not alter the look or feel of your paint coating, paint sealant or carnauba wax – this highly concentrated formula does not contain protective polymers or glossing agents and leaves you with only a purely cleaned surface.

16 oz.
