Hello, my dad's car has very soft leather, its a lexus GS. He got a new leather jacket and the die rubbed off and onto his leather surfaces. Any ideas on how to remove it, I tried searching but didnt find any solutions. Thanks

Hey guys I have a De Walt Rotary and am very new at using it. I have Edge 2000 pads that are 8 inches. I also have one pad that is 5.5. I was wondering what I can do to prevent skipping when I am buffing. I am using pinnacle XMT polishes. Could those be the problem? Thanks

Hi guys my family is looking to purchase a Toyota Camry V6 SE, Honda Accord V6 EX-L, or Nissan Altima 3.5 SE/SL. I drove the altima today and enjoyed the ride, but the build quality seemed much lower than the Honda and Toyota, what do you guys think about it?

I really want to try Menzerna polishes but I am unsure which ones to purchase. I would really like to buy a medium cut and finishing polish, would I need more than 2? What do you guys recommend? Thanks.

Hi guys I have the edge 2000 system for my rotary now and I do like it. However, I want to purchase some pads that are smaller and easier to control. What do you guys recommend and how small do they come? Im thinking maybe 5.5 in would be good. Thanks.

Well I know what buffing off the edge is now, but I have a question. I am using 8 inch edge wave pads. How would I go about buffing a panel that has many edges like the panel above the front driver side wheel.

I am starting to use a rotary and wanted to know what polising off edges instead of on them meant? Thanks.

I live in Pittsburgh PA and I am wondering where I can rent a rotary for a day to test one out. I really want to get one, but figure renting one first is a good idea before I blow a couple hunderd dollars. Thanks Guys

Hello, I believe I am ready to jump into the world of rotary buffing, and had some questions. I currently use a PC and use foam LC pads. When I get a rotary what pads are good for a beginner? What polishes are good to use. I currently have pinnacles XMT line, is that good with the rotary? Thanks...

Many people on this forum want to know how to properly use a rotary, but are very scared to attempt it. Personally I am intrested in learning how to properly operate one myself. Unfortunately the internet has no videos or tutorials on how to use one. The best I can do is pick up little tips here...

I have a set of Lake County foam pads and was wondering would Zaino's Z6 be an adequate primer for the pad?
