I Think Flex should take the comments here and improve their product. It's clear that there is a heating issue that causes backing plates to melt down. As much as i want to get one... i will wait for an improved version. I don't wanna spend my money for changing backing plates faster than i...

maybe flex is the best DA on the market, but this melting issue is well known issue, All my friends that have Flex are suffering from this issue.

This car has never been polished/waxed. Full with heavy swirls + many RIDS. - Washed - Clay (Pinnacle) - M105 / LC Yellow (one side) - Menzerna Power gloss (one side) - Meg's D300 / MF Cutting - Menzerna SF4000 - Optimum Opti-seal

#3 suppose the least agressive

Either go with LC Yellow pad (which is very aggressive) Or as mentioned - MF cutting pad if it's just one little RIDS, my suggestion is let it stay, so you can keep you clear coat thicker..

Yeah, how do you tell the old from the new one?

D151 :buffing:

Thanks mike! You gave me the answer i was looking for: :)

Good question, what happens to opti-coat when you polish swirls/scratches out of it?

I Actually found out that on a VW Golf, Meg's DA MF correction System provided surprising results (As you can see in the attached picture). Also , i would be wise to take Mike's approach and do a test spot with the least abrasive product/pad. I would do a test spot with PF2500 on an orange...

Looks great Mike! So what Pad/Product did you use? From my short expiriance, i found that removing Swirls is the easier part on these hard German cars, The problem is that once swirls are removed, a new "layer" of RIDS is relieved. In the attached picture you can see a black VW Golf after...

OK, thanks! :)

Hi Mike & everyone, My Subaru Impreza (2004) has very soft paint and picks up swirls easily. they are easy to remove (Menz 106 & LC grey pad quickly clears it up). I'm wondering if Opti coat will help the paint get a little harder and pickup less swirls.

Opti-Seal a phone... Brilliant idea!

Thanks! :) yeah , haze.. the picture is before i used Menzerna Super finish -PO106FA with LC finishing pad. the D301 & finishing pad didn't do the trick.. i wish i had the DA MF system the first time i did this car! i could have saved me a lot of time

OK! Good thing to know! i never guessed you could actually burn through pain with a DA When i tried mine, with menzerna power gloss (Compound) i could hear that it sound stronger than anything i heard before.. and i actually used it very carefully.

The Yellow are for severe oxidation/heavy swirls... u use them for a 1 step???

I'm seeing that everyone is using the orange pads. How about yellow ones? do you guy's ever use those?

As i said... DA MF system is the best. so easy to use & delivers outstanding results. That said, Cutting is great. in case of finishing, on VW gold it finished much better, on the Nissan i actually used Menzerna SF4000 which gave a much better finish.

Finally got to try the DA MF with D300, they they better than perfect job! i was amazed how easy and quickly they did the job on the same car (just did a test section)
