The cyclo goes up to 3,200 OPM and the PC goes up to 6,000 OPM. My unit goes up to 11,200 OPM. Alot of PC users run their PC at setting 6, which is at the max (6000 OPM). Can it be safe to say if I was to run this at (8000 OPM), it will not damage my paint ? |
This thread is on direct drive rotary polishing, not random orbital buffing. To burn through paint with a PC you really have to try hard.
