Re: Rotary Buffer
Thank you all for your help! I might should have mentioned that the two DA I own are the Portacable and the Flex 3401. I am now wondering do I even need to add a rotary? I am not a professional detailer (YET) but I am addicted to transformers!! ( transforming finishes that is!)

You "really" want the best get a Fein. Be prepared to drop a grand though.
b) Flex has a new rotary out. I think its around $500. Its very new and not alot of reviews of its preformance for me to recommend at this time, but it seems very nice
c) Makita 9227c is tried and true. You can pickup one of these for around $250. This is what I use
Dewalt makes a good unit to, but a little heavier then the Makita
Good luck in your decision and Merry Christ X

I have Makita's 9227 and couldn't be more satisfied.
Undeniably, Flex makes superb machines. I have Flex's 3401 DA polisher it works as well it's built.
I have no complaints with either of them, not a one...........

Re: Rotary Buffer
Price an issue?
I agree on all the previous posts, almost to the letter. Fein is #1, the Rolls Royce of Tools.
So Flex would be the Bentley.
Makita would be the Ford F-150
But if you will not be using it very much and really want to save money on the purchase.
Get the Trabant or Fiat 124 of polishers.
The Harbor Freight polisher, only $34.99 and it comes with a lifetime warranty. When it dies it's life is over.
7" Variable Speed Polisher/Sander
