    Flex 3401 OPM

    I'm coming from a G110v2 to a Flex 3401. I know what the OPM are for the G110 on each speed but what are they for the Flex? I have the range of their range of 3200 - 9600, but for each speed?
    Just trying to figure out what speed I need to be on with the products I use.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    1-4 for wax, sealant, glazes and 5-6 for any type of correction work. Basically its the same way you would use the other DA you have..Nothing really changes

    Since you adjust the OPM by adjusting the variable speed dial, you don't really need to know the OPM but the speed setting you'll select on the dial.

    Same goes for any DA Polisher, you don't really need to know what the OPM's are for the speed settings, just set the variable speed setting on the number of the dial depending upon what you're trying to do with the polisher.

    Thanks for everyone's replies, knowing that the speeds are a little different, I guess they aren't THAT much different, just a different beast.
    I'm really looking forward to getting down on a chalky white Camero this weekend. Hope the new Flex will cut some time off my buffing.
