"FLEX Foursome" buffer kit now available We have assembled a powerful kit to attack a wide range of surface scratches and other blemishes. Starting with the FLEX 3401 polisher, it provides the necessary power to see fast, visible surface improvement for the beginner or detailer.
http://www.tropi-care.com/FLEX_Orbit...3401%20vrg.htm
The Menzerna Super Intensive Polish is becoming more and more popular for us as a fast improvement product including use on harder clear coat surafces.
http://www.tropi-care.com/Menzerna_S..._p/men-sip.htm
The new purple "KOMPRESSOR" pads have arrived. They feature a stronger cutting ability than even the yellow pad. This new hybrid compounding pad removes oxidation, heavy swirls and most scratches. The slotted pad face of both of these pads adjust to the changing surface contours to provide greater surface contact, more consistent results and less product splatter.
http://www.tropi-care.com/Purple_KOM..._p/tcp-k00.htm
For lighter scratches and surface refining after the purple or LC orange CCS foam pad, this pad can be used to smooth and refine the surface using lighter polishes. It also removes very light imperfections, mild swirling and light oxidation.
http://www.tropi-care.com/White_KOMP..._p/tcp-k03.htm
List price for this group is $364.36. Buy it online at www.tropi-care.com for $327.92 with promo code"10offTC" (a $36.44 savings)
Bonus pricing on phone orders. Contact me toll free at (866)341-0050 for more details.

While I havent used a PC, I had never before owned a buffer/polisher and stepped right into the Flex w/o incident.
There are pros/cons for both. The PC will accept 4" pads which makes getting into tighter spaces easier. The smaller pads will also yield more correction than the 5.5"-6" on the PC.
The Flex only has one backing plate size that fits 6" pads. You can finish a vehicle in less time because of the increased surface area you will be able to cover but cant quite get to the tighter spots.

My2kTA is right on with his assessment of the 2 machines.
Lake Country is looking at other backing plate sizes for the FLEX for future consideration.
The FLEX has a smoother, tighter rotation compared to the PC. It also has a progressive trigger to control your speed at the higher end.
The PC is a great machine for both the beginner or novice. It's user friendly and the key is to have patience during its use to remove deeper, stubborn scratches or blemishes.
Feel free to contact me for more info or any questions.

Free press for Steve and Tropicare! Customer service and product quality are both top of the line. If you love your car, get a buffer and some products from TC. Just bought my second CTS-V, with a 414ci LS3. New TC refills arrive today. Pics will follow

As Scott noted this is true.
I have used the LCK pads with both machines. The backside pocket of the pad is right at 5-3/8". The FLEX backing plate measured at 5-1/2" and the LC backing plate is right at 5-7/8". Tighter fit with the PC but it will work fine.

April 17 Update This kit has been very popular for us as evidenced by a number of fellow forum members have taken advantage of this opportunity.
The combo of the FLEX and Menzerna SIP provides a very formidable attack many surface scratches and other blemishes. It is particular successful for use on harder clear coats such as C5, C6 and others featuring scratch resistant PPG Ceramiclear surfaces.
If you are anxious for results as a enthusiast or detailer, looking for/need more response than what a PC can offer, I suggest taking a closer look at this kit.
