Unlike a rotary or circular polisher, modern dual action (also known as \"random orbital\") polishers offer safe, effective paint correction, polishing, and waxing. If you're brand new to machine polishing and you want to keep it simple, look no further than the Porter Cable 7424XP. This has been our best-selling dual action polisher for many years because it's affordable and built to last. If you're looking for something smoother with more power, check out the FLEX XCE or XFE dual action polisher. The XCE is forced rotation, making it the ultimate choice for heavy paint defect removal, while the XFE is the long-stroke orbital by FLEX, offering buttery-smooth power delivery.","published_at":"2021-08-20T15:38:06-04:00","sort_order":"best-selling","template_suffix":"pt-polishers","disjunctive":true,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Porter Cable 7424XP Polishers"},{"column":"title","relation":"contains","condition":"Flex XCE"},{"column":"title","relation":"contains","condition":"Flex XFE"},{"column":"title","relation":"contains","condition":"Flex Polisher"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"FLEX Dual Action Orbital Polishers"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"cordless polisher"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"dual action polishers"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Orbital Polishers"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Rotary Polishers"},{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"Mini Polishers"}],"published_scope":"global"},{"id":276467843235,"handle":"flex-dual-action-orbital-polishers","title":"FLEX Dual Action Orbital Polishers","updated_at":"2026-06-03T07:11:53-04:00","body_html":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe FLEX family of Automotive and Marine polishers have been engineered for both ease of use and rugged durability.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOur German Engineers have designed details such as patented front air vents and powerful motors to deliver maximum performance and maximum usability for rugged jobs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMade by Professionals for Professionals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFLEX provides the whole range of drive technologies for polishers and thus solutions for all types of user, be they a professional or a beginner with little experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf you're not sure where to start shopping, here's a quick breakdown of the most popular Flex polishers:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe FLEX XCE, available in both a corded and battery-powered version, is our best-selling FLEX polisher.
