PC vs. Flex polisher
I am hearing great things about this buffer. My PC is safe, I think to safe it takes for ever to get the job done. The Flex (made in Germany) is still very safe and twice as powerful with more shine satisfaction. So I have heard. Just dont know? Anyone?

HodRod,
I have heard quite a bit about the flex polisher and all good. I have had the PC for a while and it does a great job but it is hard to get swirls/scratches out of the Corvette clearcoat. I just ordered the flex and will be trying it out when I get it. I will update when I get it.

I use the Meg's also but it took me a long time to get most the swirls out of my 89. I plan on keeping my PC but for the big areas it would be nice to use something better. I don't want to get a rotary since I would probably screw my paint up and spend more on getting it fixed!

WOW ....for 3 times as much as I paid for my PC, it SHOULD do a better job......3 times better!!!! Is the FLEX really almost $300.00? I got my PC just two days ago off of the auction site for $96!!......
