Thanks for your help. This forum has been extremely helpful.
If you maintain your vehicle using the proper washing and drying techniques, I maintain with Menzerna PO106FF and a black pad. I always recommend starting with the least aggressive combination to get the job done then moving up as needed. Yes, I feel the orange light cutting pad is too aggressive for normal maintenance. If anything, go with the white polishing pad.

When correcting deeper imperfections with either Super Intensive Polish or Intensive Polish, I tend to turn to an orange light cutting pad, or if I know it's a soft clear coat, a white polishing pad.

With the additional power of the Flex, I often find myself starting with one pad softer than I would with the PC.

If you're seeking a Flex, we have a couple left in stock ready to go as of now. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Have a Happy New Years!
