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.

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.
