About Flex:
Founded in 1922, Flex is a manufacturer of power tools from Germany. Like many German companies, Flex is known for its high-quality, well-engineered, and innovative products. That makes their tools valued by professionals and even consumer markets. Their most popular products are angle grinders, cordless tools, drills, impact drivers, polishers, polishing pads, saws, and vacuum cleaners.Polisher Options:
Flex makes three different types of polishers – rotary, random orbital, and forced rotation polishers.
Rotary Polishers - the most powerful type of polisher and are best for removing heavy scratches and defects in the paint. They feature a single oscillating disc that spins in a circular motion. However, they can be the most aggressive and can also cause swirl marks if not used with the proper technique.
Random Orbital Polishers - engineered with a disc that oscillates two ways simultaneously. It spins on a central axis and in a random pattern. This machine is less likely to cause swirl marks than a rotary polisher and is best for polishing and finishing paint.
Forced Rotation Polishers - a hybrid of rotary and random orbital polishers. These polishers are designed with a single oscillating disc that spins in a circular motion; it is also forced to rotate in a random motion simultaneously. It is a great bridge between the power of a rotary polisher and the smoothness of a random orbital polisher. Forced rotation polishers are best for correcting paint defects without the risk of swirl marks. However, they are also the most expensive type of polisher.
