Flex Buffer

Flex Buffer – The Best Buffer for Auto Detailing and Paint Correction

 

Meguiars FLEX 3401 Ultra Polish Kit with 6.5 Inch Pads

 

• FLEX XC 3401 VRG Orbital Variable Speed Polisher
• 32 oz. Meguiars Mirror Glaze #105 Ultra-Cut Compound
• 32 oz. Meguiars Mirror Glaze #205 Ultra Finishing Polish
• 3 CCS Orange Light Cutting 6.5 inch Foam Pads
• 2 CCS Gray Finishing 6.5 Inch Foam Pads, 2 Cobra Microfiber Detailing Cloths, 16 x 16 inches

The Meguiars FLEX 3401 Ultra Polish Kit with 6.5 Inch Pads wins the battle against swirls every time. This kit has the micro abrasive polishing action of Meguiar’s #105 and #205 plus the true orbital motion of the FLEX XC 3401 Polisher. When it comes to swirl and scratch removal, the Meguiars FLEX 3401 Ultra Polish Kit with 6.5 Inch Pads is your best ally. Use Meguiars Mirror Glaze #105 Ultra-Cut Compound first. Work at a maximum speed of 5-6 on the FLEX XC 3401 VRG Polisher with an included light cutting pad. Work until the compound starts to dry. Wipe off the residue with a clean Cobra Microfiber Detailing Cloth. Follow up with Meguiars Mirror Glaze #205. Using a dual action polisher and a gray finishing pad, work at a speed of 4 or 5. Work in a 2 x 2 sq. ft. area and wipe off polish immediately after polishing using a clean Cobra Microfiber Detailing Cloth.

Questions and Answers:

Do I need to get the backing plate for this kit? Or is it already included?

Answer:

Hello, Mr. Liu. The backing plate is already on the polisher in the box.
