    Had a little time for some hands-on training at SEMA 2011

    Had a little time for some hands-on training at SEMA 2011


    This young lady came through our booth with a couple other gentlemen from China, they were "Buyers" and interested in doing business with our wholesale division.

    She was very interested in the Flex 3401 so I offered to show her how to use it and then try it out for herself...


    A little hands-on training...



    Hold the pad flat to the surface...



    That's Bob Eichelberg on the right, he's the President of Flex Tools North America.

    Buffing like a seasoned pro...



    I think she has the detailing bug now...

    Nice!
    Love the Flex but hate those Smart Pads... Seems like when downward
    Readied is added the round indention thingys mar the paint ... Like they have hard plastic and when you compress the pad they mar ... Don't mean to derail your thread but hope y'all strike a deal and get some products over seas!!

    I guess Seems is the key word above because I've never seen a problem with the CCS marring paint. You would have to push down hard enough to completely flatten the pad against the paint and even then with a lubricating product it would be the least of my worries but I would never be pushing that hard in the first place.
