Rotary will definitly remove more with a light polish than the PC with a heavy one... But like anything, it all depends on the pads you're using.

I personally have not found a pad other than 6" spot polishing that *feel* right when working, as well as giving me the ease of use and finish I want.

I've burned a car trying to use an 8" pad once, and I don't want to ever do that again!!!
