- Renny loves forced action/gear driven polisher technology. In this video he explains why, and why they are the best option for today's super thin clear coats.

My first polisher was the Flex 3401 and I love it. After over 10 years of use it's still my number one machine.
The thing I love so much about the rotary and the flex is that you can run it at low speed and know it’s working. You don’t need to crank up the speed to build up momentum to prevent stall.
agreed. Even though I've used long throw since 2008, coming from rotary and gear driven era, it feels like a step backwards and not an artisans tool. But yes they can do great things most often, my least favourite tool action
I use both. I have a Flex 3401 forced action, and I have a Flex Kompakt 3 3" rotary. I feel they are thes best you can get. High quality, powerful motors inside. That kompakt 3 has a lot of power, you can put a 5" plate on it and go to town. Dynabrade has that new one that i am sure is extremely good too. I use Dynabrade spirit and extreme pneumatic DA sanders in my paint shop and Dynabrade only makes great stuff
There is a concept I've had for a new polisher for several years that I'm trying to get any manufacturer to make which would give this industry a tool that would fill a gap in it that is the best of both worlds of random and gear driven with a unique feature that detailers would love. I've always loved the gear driven tools for correction but also finishing. but there is still more evolution to go to make them better I feel, they need to be even more ergonomic and quieter plus UVP damping front and rear to make the use closer to that of a rotary feel
Hey buddy, when I tried to get my idea only manufacture willing to do it was Maxshine, but they required 80k USD and mandated a min annual unit to be purchased every year...
So went back to hoping another manufacturer would just come out with it..
@@user-yc6wx4sn5n that sounds about right for that company. I may end up going the way you did. Why should i spend that when tool companies have the funds to do it
Very helpfull, thank you, are the modern post-Chevron FLEX forced action polishers made in Germany?
Yes I do believe they are. The Flex tools that are red in color. The Flex tools that are black/grey colored are madebin Japan
Yes they are, the grey black colored cordless Flex power tools are made in Japan which are excellent tools as well. Both Germany and Japan take pride in their work and are more concerned with quality than quantity unlike china where the other tools are made
Love my flex
Hey Renny… BIG STEVE! Just wanted to say hello! I will text you! LOL.
When is your forced action being released??
Our of the 3, Makita PO5000C is better
Theres 2 not seen in this video, bosch and flex XCE
They all have their pros and cons.
Really hoping the dynabrade is legit and not a simply XCE clone
Ie, needs to be smooth, not picky on pads to retain that smoothness, not get hot where your hands need to be placed and not likely to walk.
On the terminology, I like G/A best...gear action
There's also a "Forced" 3in machine that's been out a few year...short 5mm throw, but sadly vibrates like an d school GG6/PC and flex 3401
5.5 of the Makita
Most RPM second Most OPM
What's specs of dynabrade 6.5 MM?
