Mike,
The boat looks phenomenal! The crew did an awesome job, it's better than new. I need to quit staring at it and get back to work.

Welcome, looks like we're neighbor's as I'm in B'ville

Sounds like a good idea with the grease. I'm going to try the same and see what happens. I'll post back with my results.

I'm also going to try an aluminum bolt/fastener to hold the backing plate...

ever since I removed the RIDS on my Silverado with my Flex, I always stare at the paint in the sunlight and see if I can find any I missed. Yep, I have got home washed, clayed and re-polished.

OEM plate. To avoid any confusion from my other post, pad mount = backing plate.

Autogeek is sending out a replacement and I will send them the old one--thanks again Nick. I sent all the...

Maybe I spoke prematurely on this issue. Using my Flex a few weekends ago I had a malfunction. The plastic pad mount actually became dislodged off the machine. The plastic retaining boss that sits...

Someone needs to walk for a summer and learn a lesson, to do that to a borrowed vehicle is a total lack of respect and personal responsibility. My children knew better than that by age 3.

That's...

Yes it is!

1992-1996 Kadena AB. 67TH FS. Godspeed to ya Mach1USMC! :xyxthumbs:

I finally got my Silverado straightened out. An orange pad and WGTSR and it looks better than new. As Mark stated, the WGTSR cut is determined by the pad the user selects.

As you get the pad...

I absolutely love BMW's. The car is gorgeous, nice job.

Welcome Kemp! Tons of knowledgeable members on this site who are very helpful.

Did the two bucket wash, microfiber towel dry, clay, before buffing the first time.

I did do a test spot and it appeared that the orange pad was producing satisfactory results. I was working in...

sounds good. I'll post back after I try again.

Hey folks,
I just used my 3401 for the first time. Actually, my very first time using any type of mechanical polisher. Here's where I'm at. I'm using light cut polish from a company called Hi-Temp...

according to Flex the tool monitors for overload/overheat conditions. If the Flex is having the mentioned issues it automatically slows the RPM until it cools to a pre-determined temperature. So, if...

X2! Enjoy the day Dad's. :xyxthumbs:

I know it's tough. I spent 25-years in the military and have injuries similar to spiney Dave. The injuries you cam't see hurt me the most.

Helping at the local soup kitchen, mentoring teens,...

been using their products since the mid-90's. The HT-61, light cut polish works very well as does the HT-62 terminator paint sealant. The trade secret carnuba wax is excellent.

Grape tire...

Mike,
My apology in having you re-write the info. I looked through the posts last night and must have missed your post. I'll blame it on a huge box that arrived yesterday from PBMG. I did get the...

Good Afternoon everyone,
Just got my flex polisher, pads, polish, glaze, ect. yesterday afternoon. The living room looked like Christmas morning. :xyxthumbs: I'm a little stumped over some polisher...

for detailing you have more than enough pressure. Personally, I would think a hose is all you need.

I have a Landa washer that's heated and rated at 4,500 psi. I clean heavy equipment. The...

absolutely stunning!

I just got my Flex about 30-minutes ago. The UPS man was jealous. I can't wait to try it out, my first machine. I have been doing lots of reading on the site and hope to do a...

TimmyG,
You are to be admired for your involvement with your friends son, Chris. When our time is done, life isn't about how much money we made, the cars we drove, ect. It's all about stamping the...

remember you'll be under the gun no matter the car line. You won't have the time to finesse them like you might want. I'll guess that's why you left this working environment............

Agree with Dave. Anytime you have friction you will create heat. Aluminum dissipates heat rapidly hence the choice on the Flex. Many car engines have aluminum parts for the same reason.
