    Both are great machines But the PE14--2 is lighter and to me more comfortable to use.

    Im thinking about selling my 3401 and getting a mikita and a PC or GG6. I would like to have the PE14-2 but i currently don`t detail enough to justify the cost of it.

    Is Festool supposed to be the best, any body familiar with it?

    Re: Which polishers are in your arsenal?

    I gave my PC 7424 to my son-in-law

    Use ---
    Flex PE14-250 Rotary
    Makita 9227C Rotary
    Flex 3403 Rotary - mostly on Airplanes
    Flex 3401VRG - LSP application, etc., never for correction
    Meguiars G110V2 - Excellent Random Orbital use for correction of smaller places, front bumpers that are small, headlights, taillights, etc.. Smaller stuff with 3"and 4" pads.

    They are a great polisher. The Flex PE14 is very similar.

    I really wanted one and was waiting.. but they never came to US shores.

    Until 1 month after I got the Flex PE14

    A pound or 2 makes a big difference when you`re working on the underside of a wing, huh?
