Good Polishes with Flex 3401?
Okay we've all heard and read that menzerna makes good polishes that work quite well with this beast.
Any verdict on OTHER brands of polishes that work?
I have the entire poorboys line and optimum polish line available and was wondering how well that might fair on the flex?

My vote would be Optimum since that's what I use in my business. My Flex is on order. Can't wait to try it out.

Are you planning to use your Flex instead of a rotary or along with using a rotary in your business?

Don't have the Flex yet but plan on it
Besides Menzerna, I have 1Z Intesiv Paste, and 1Z High Gloss Polishes. I like them a lot
I may add Optimum since I hear good things about it all the time...

I hear a lot of good things about optimum, and I'd love to know if I can "save" money by using it inplace of menzerna 106ff.
If Poorboys ssr2.5 works well I'd be a happy man.

Re: Good Polishes with Flex 3401?
I got my flex for christmas and it's real cold here in NJ. One day it was in the 40's and I went outside and played with optimum compound and polish and had great results. I have the menz lineup but have only used it with my PC.
I love the flex after only being able to use it for a hour.

Menzerna! I have used Menzerna polishes side by side with the flex along with optimum polishes and i can say with confidence that Menzerna polishes have superior gloss and correcting power.

I'm still learning the rotary so I'll most likely use the Flex for most jobs. If I have something that needs a lot of correction, it might end up being a combination of both.
Since I have a PC, UDM, Makita rotary, & Metabo rotary already, I'll probably look to sell the UDM and Makita. I use the PC on carpets when needed and the Metabo is a mainstay.

Just buy yourself a qt. of Optimum Polish and Optimum Compound. If you like the idea of little to no dust, you'll love Optimum. Yes, Menz seems to be at the top of the list, but if price is an issue, check out Optimum. If you like the polishes, they can be purchased in gallon sizes which saves you even more money.
Another thought: If you pick up OP and/or OC, you might as well pick up Poli-Seal. I love that stuff!
