In my shop everything gets finished down with a DA machine, usually with the more powerful dual mode machine. Mainly this is because of the problem you are thinking about, employees. I learned early on that it was not worth the hassle to try and train every employee that will be working on exteriors the ins and outs of rotary polishing. I usully handle the tough jobs up to the final polishing steps then turn them over to an employee for DA work. |
On black paint, I've never not seen the micromarring...except maybe on a corvette with really hard clear. I guess you just have to know what you're looking for - Sullybob from this board had never seen it before either...till he came and apprenticed under me and I had him polish with the PC and Cyclo using OP and the haze (micromarring) was very evident (black car) (the surface had already been buffed with FPII via rotary and was glass smooth before we broke out the rotary)...we went to 106FF via PC and the haze became less noticeable.
