Thanks for the info. I purchased the machine before it was available in my country. Took the advice from someone here of using a step down transformer and since then, had absolutely no issues with it until just recently, about 2 months ago. All these years it worked fine but I wasn't aware that...

Sorry my mistake. Mine is a 110V unit and I use a step down transformer here in Aus. Can you pls recommend a place in the US to purchase an electronic module? thanks heaps

Thx. It's 230v

Unfortunately I'm not in the States so cant send it there.

My Flex rotary seems to be stuck in the fastest setting. I've tried dismantling and cleaning the guts. No luck. Someone suggested the carbon brushes needs replacement but before i commit to buying them, has anyone had the same problem? thanks.

Never had any issues with constant pressure pads and I've been using them for years (5.5 and 6.5" pads).

Only problem I've had with LC pads was an orange 6" Kompressor which only lasted 3 wash cycles before delaminating. All the ccs pads are going strong after more than a dozen cycles.

I've used P21S paint cleaner with great results as well, especially on soft single stage paints. Gives you a touch of correction so minor swirls and scratches are effectively removed.

I read from another post of yours that you were getting tired from using the 3401. Your arms must be 10 times thicker than mine but I've found the 3401 still to be the best and most effective DA (forced or non-forced) machine in the market. More importantly, I don't feel like I've benched 200...

If using Klasse SG, put the product in a small spray bottle as it has a consistency close to water. The squirt bottles they come in are not good enough and you can waste a lot of product if not careful. Other than that, KSG provides a very nice glossy finish.

I can't comment on Aquawax as I just used it last week but OCW has lasted about 4 weeks on a daily that tolerates temps above 35 deg C which is over 95 deg F. Of course, everyone's scenario would be different, depending on several factors like temps, prep before lsp, daily or a garage queen, etc.

I've used OCW for years and love the product. Then I tried Aquawax for the the first time last week and was also very impressed. For bang for bucks, Aquawax wins imo. Smells nicer as well.

I've used plenty of Kompressor pads on a 3401 and never had any issues. I'm using the 6" pads.

This is a very common problem with almost all Evo's, from V to IX. It's due to the clear coat not withstanding the high temps that calipers achieve. Put it simply, the incorrect clear was used. Once the clear fails, the red colour fades quickly, like normal paint on panels. Cars that are...

Why don't you try the Natty's first and see what you think. You have it already anyway :) If that doesn't please the pallet, I would recommend Souveran Paste. That stuff works brilliant on dark colours.
