    All brawl with ZERO stall - FLEX Gear-Driven Polishers!

    All brawl with ZERO stall - FLEX Gear-Driven Polishers!



    Back in December of 2020 there was a discussion on the FLEX 3401 here,

    Got my FLEX 3401 today!



    One of our stellar forum members chimed in with the below, see post #13

    Still love mine

    One thing I always do in life is I always give due credit where credit is due. In other words and in context, in the car detailing world, I don't steal stuff from others and then present it as mine.

    In keeping with this practice, here you go Vobro... it's at the end of this new TV commercial Yancy and I shot for "My Classic Car" with Dennis Gage. This TV commercial and the slogan you came up with will be seen on MotorTrend TV Channel - pretty cool!





    And Chris Metcalf, the FLEX Rep for all of North America, approved it and loved it!

    I own the limited pink 3401 and the new cordless C-Beast.

    I also pushed my friend over the fence on the Supa Beast last month.

    Fabulous tools!

    Big props to vobro!

    (The NY version would be "All balls, no stalls")
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Here's pictures to clear-up any confusion...













    The BEAST family of tools includes,


    FLEX XC 3401 VRG - the original and also known as The BEAST - and the BEAST is spelled with all capital letters. This is a 8mm gear-driven fixed orbit orbital polisher.

    FLEX XCE 10-8 125 aka The Supa BEAST - Supa is short for super and only the first letter is capitalized. This is a 8mm gear-driven fixed orbit orbital polisher.

    FLEX XCE 8-125 18.0 aka The CBEAST - All capital letters and the letter C before the word BEAST simply stands for cordless. This is a 8mm gear-driven fixed orbit orbital polisher.

    I've had my 3401 since 2007 and it's been nothing short of great. Just picked up my CBeast a few months ago and really liking it too.

    Forgot to add, BOTH came from Autogeek!

    I love cordless. I recently added a CBEAST to the fold. I've had a BEAST for 13 years but wanted to "ditch the cord". I purchased a cordless Finisher a couple of years ago for a friendlier experience.... but I missed gear driven action. I took out a few different vendors white 7" pads and layed it on a big white minvan for a "spin". Love was in the air!

    Not the workout the BEAST gives but a kinder version. Unlike my usual full speed assault on paint. I found I really like speed two for the mellow sound and I'm only using it to spread BF One Step on a vehicle already in great shape condition wise getting it's quarterly "spa day".

    Yes, recommended!
