    I know we've all seen Flexs' before, but this one is mine and I'm super excited to share it with you guys. Just brought it home, bought it at a local tool speciality shop in town (wanted to support the local guy). A buddy is bringing his new to him BMW (red) over tomorrow, so I'll take this beast for a spin in the morning. Cant wait.

    By the way, are guys using MF pads with the Flex, or just foam?

    Very nice. Was his price about the same as online? Are you going to get the smaller BP for it?

    I paid $329 for it, same as I've seen online. For now I'm just going to use the 5.5" bp that comes on it. I dont see myself getting the smaller plate for it just yet. I have the PC with the 5" plate and the Griots 3" DA for small areas. I'll mostly be using the Flex with my 5.5" and 6" pads, as well as my MF pads.

    very nice! i need to get my hands on one, the PC just takes too long on my older cars. The Flex would be much more efficient and save me alot of painful hours haha. congrats!

    I run mine with the smaller BP and B & S 5.5" pads. It'll take you several panels to get used to the reverse motion. Don't fight it; adapt to how it wants to move and you'll be a pro using it very quickly.
