Thanks to all for the great info given over the last few days. Searched the forum and reviewed lots of links and videos. Finally decided on the Flex 3401 and made my first purchase with Autogeek Friday and they were great! Very helpful and shipped right away with delivery, believe it or not, next Tuesday! Purchased the Wolfgang kit plus some extras which included the following:
FLEX XC3401 VRG Orbital Polisher w/ 5-1/2 inch backing plate
WG Total Swirl Remover 3.0
WG Finishing Glaze 3.0
WG Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0
WG Instant Polishing Pad
3 CCS Pads
1 CCS red pad (free)
2 Cobra towels
Collinite Liquid Wax (BOGO)
Pinnacle Ultra Poly Clay w/Lub
Might try other products later, but for now will stick with WG products. Didn't order any pad cleaner or conditioner, as I don't think they are necessary. I know they come with other kits, but I plan on using soap and water for cleaning and whatever product I'm using for priming the pad. Anyone use pad cleaner and/or conditioner? One better than the other?
Also, any guidence on which extension cord will work best with the Flex - 16/3, 14/3, or 12/3?
Anyone have any other recommendations? What did I miss on the polishing/waxing front?
In the mean time, I'm really looking forward to using my new Flex 3401 and will try to post some before and after pics.
