STUTTGART'S FINEST
Between this Flex 3401VRG and the Festool RO 150FEQ are the Porsche/Mercedes Benz of polishing equipment.
My painter has a Festool sander with vacuum and was sanding our sheetrock ceiling. He was wearing a red shirt, and you could not see any dust on his shirt! I was impressed as all hell. Felt the sander and it feels very balanced. Now this is a sander, not a polisher I was checking out. DOn't know the model, but remember the black/green on the tools along with the cases. Very nice equipment indeed!
The Flex is a true RO type tool. I know another shop that has one and I really liked it. It's just size that was the question of need. Perfect for doing both a cutting then breakdown to polishing (do I hear Menzerna?) on one tool!
The Festool size would be a good replacement for a PC .
Here's the link to the manual in PDF:http://www.festoolusa.com/supplyimages/TM_RO150FEQ.pdf
Those that have the Flex, you'll love the way it polishes, it just the size that's a bit too much for some users, but for those not wanting to go full rotary, this is the best tool you can get!
As I said, these are the Porsche/Mercedes-Benz of polishers!!
Me? I still use the Makita as it's banged around, dropped, and used often. I think these others may or may not take the abuse, time will tell. I'd hate to get the Flex or Festool dirty they look so nice!
