Which polisher to add?

[LAKings22]

Looking for a polisher to compliment my Flex 3401, a good 1 2 punch.

Recently I started to take on jobs from people who friends and family have referred and want to deliver the best results. Also if for whatever reason the flex goes out mid way, nice to have something to fall back on. 2 is 1 and 1 is none.

what do you guys think I should consider buying?

I have a GG6 to go with the Flex. I use it with 4in pads or final polishing. Its so hot in the garage in the summer its nice to finish with something with less weight

Kinda like asking "Who's the best baseball player ever?".......... You'll get as many opinions as answers.

But, as you already have the biggest, baddest polisher........... Why not get another? Unless you're wanting something different.

I had the GG6 and used the hound of it, a very good machine. I then added the Flex to my arsenal, which was a great machine and became my go to. As I found the GG3 I also owned a tad under powered for some work, I ended up converting the GG6 to a 3. Having had both and since you already have a Flex, as long as you like it and it serves your purposes, I would stick with it. As PaulMys suggested, add a second if you are concerned about having one quit. Frankly though, as well made as the Flex is, you are more likely to get struck by lightning than have the Flex quit on you.

I guess I was leaning twords a machine along with the flex that can be used on a single job. Maybe something the performs better then a 3401 in certain situations and capable to finish a complete job in the rare case the flex gives.

What are your ideas on "Better than the Flex"?

I like this option, the 4" option can be helpful. Is the GG6 capable of accepting smaller pads?

Most certainly.

However, the good ol' PC has a smaller shroud, and really excels as a 3 or 4" machine.

My experience is only with the flex. Please don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to replace the flex.

My intention here was to see what 3401 owners use as a secondary option.

If I was a full time detailer, I can see having a back up 3401 as being a great idea but for someone like me who's doing this more of a hobby every other weekend, that gives me enough time to pick up another 3401 if needed.

Sorry I replied to your other post before seeing this. I look into both PC and GG, they both seem to be priced the same
