The Flex arrived from AG today and I went right to work. My General Manager bought this Corvette a couple of weeks ago. The cars been sitting outside for months and had a hideous layer of over spray that the Flex and Menz SIP made short work of. I finished it off with 106 and a great smelling coat of Pinnacle Souveran :buffing:

The Flex packs quite a bit more muscle than the worn out UDM It's replacing. This is a serious piece of hardware :cool:

The specs on the car are: '73 Corvette w/ '69 front clip, 489ci/550hp, steering mounted electronic paddle shift, complete Willwood brake system and custom fender flairs to fit the 335 drag radials. '08 Vette Atomic Orange and white paint.

Looks great! For a random orbital polisher to got to love the Flex. Love the orange on the car but I don't care to much for the orange/white color combo.
 
That vette looks great. The flex is a great machine.
 
Rather nice pics ... exciting ride and detail too !
 
Great job! Vette looks stunning now.
Seen lots of great reviews on the Flex, but also seen quite a few posts on a few forums about the BP issues. That has kept me from getting one, so far. Still have my trusty PC though!
Nice mini-review Slo-ryd.

Thanks!

I tightened the backing plate bolt about a half turn right out of the box then buffed for about five hours straight with no issues.

Thank you!

The '67 is rowdy, 502ci crate motor with 4:10 gears. It's getting some touch up body work and paint before too long.

I drove it back from a Hot Rod Reunion event last year...with earplugs lol
