Look mom, no handles! - Thanks RAG

I was thinking about two variables that affect correction, speed of the buffer moving across the surface and the pressure you put on the buffer against the paint. Since I started using this method - light presure to spread and 15 pounds or so to work it - followed by light pressure to finish AND I slowed down my speed, the rotary is working much better for me. A tip I got from David Fermini - "use a specific polish & pad till you learn how it will work, then change the other variables to see what affect they have" So maybe before I go on social security I'll figure it all out, but I'm keeping my polishes down to Menzerna and a couple 3M, pads are mostly LC, that should help!
 
Silva - you ever use those cool looking mechanix gloves that the guys on Spike TV's Powerblock use? I'm thinking about some, but my wish list is back burner till I get some Christmas paid off!
 
Very often I do not use any pressure and honestly anything beyond 1800 rpm with a rotary could do some damage to the strength of the clear coat



You'd think that with wool, a slower rpm would be better due to their more cutting power

Nope, looking for Detailing compliant gloves but right now it's not that important. My Hitachi runs just fine with its handle.
