I thought I read a thread that said you wanted the Flex Polisher...:D
So here it is....

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!

Max even put it on sale!:righton:
 
My b'days around the corner :) I gotta get rid of two P/C's and some polishes to make room for the Menz Supply and Flex!
 
This is good news..now all we need to do is send our PCs in for a discount on the new Flex ;)
 
I hope Max puts one of those in my Xmas stocking !

I've had my Flex for a couple fo months now and really haven't been disappointed with it yet. I've done about 5-6 details with it, and it continues to be a workhorse. I've posted several reviews/pics on some other sites that some of you may have seen. ZoranC first got me excited about it, and I see he's still preaching the good word over here. It's good to see more online detailing retailers carrying this now. A couple of months ago I had to contact Flex directly pleading my case on how to get one. Now there's more and more choices coming online every day it seems like.
 
Proud member of the Flex nation!!!! Awesome tool. WTG AutoGeek!!!!!!!! Talk about
listening to your customers!!!
 
First impression. Lot different than the PC. Handles alot different. I really really like the trigger mechanism allowing you to "feather" the speed of it up to whatever you have it dialed in for. The flex sounds alot different than the PC. There seems to be alot less vibration with it. I used a 6.5 LC pad (white) with Opt. Poli Seal. I didnt have any of the hopping some have experienced. From just my first try, this machine isnt playing around. I think you could do some serious correction with the Flex. I dont think I'll need another polisher for a long long time.
 
Looks like I will be adding this to my arsenal for XMAS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only down side to this machine is that you are locked into 1 size pad so basically you still need a pc/udm for spot/ tight areas oother than that it look promising.

It has a different type of threading so rotary and PC threaded BPs and adaptors won't work ... unless Edge comes up with another new adapter for this machine ....
 
Patrick, MikeyC is working with Edge to "prototype" an adapter for the Edge2000 system.
 
Well I can wait till the next shipment as its winter here and I won't be doing much polishing till spring anyway.If its available when i'm ready if not no big deal. I Still have my UDM,PC and rotary to tide me over .Its just another tool in bag of tricks!!!!
 
Hey, Zoran, not sure if you still read any threads over at the other detailing sites, but there's been some negative press on the UDM lately. Sounds like it may be due to a bad batch or something, but they're randomly dying. Makes me think back to some of the e-mails we traded. Cat's out of the bag now on the Flex and not much can be done about it.
