Thanks Don! I wanted to have one as a back-up and now I can use one for smaller pads and smaller/narrow sections.

Damn Frank! Amazing write up/review! Nice work!

Love how you captured many different products and made them all flow in one thread.

Many questions but will keep them streamlined: Thoughts on the new McKee's products from use? (amazing results) Gloss pads on the 3401? Im sure you picked up some lint from ironing out the mf's.

Thanks Mike, good questions!

1. McKee's products - I liked using both the compound and the polish. The compound was long working, little dusting, easy wipe off and finishes nice. I don't know about it's correction ability since there wasn't much to correct in my case. I'll have to try it out on a darker swirled out paint.

Pretty much the same thing with the polish, long working, very little to no dusting, easy wipe off. I like the fact that it's white instead of grey and doesn't stain my white pads .

2. Gloss pads - they are soft, very similar to the Rupes white pads, leave a nice finish and they run smooth on the flex.

The 6.5" pads fit nicely on the backing plate that comes with the Flex.

6.5" Gloss Pads.






Fit on the 5.5" stock backing plate.


5.5" Gloss Pads.






Fit on the 4" backing plate - not a perfect fit but the back of the pads are stiff so no real issue there.


3. Lint on the towels - I didn't pay too much attention to this part, I just passed the lint roller over the towels, if there was some lint, it was very little. I just took a quick glance at the roller when I was done and did see some minor stuff but I'm not sure if it was from a previous use.
