Re: Unbelieveable Rotary Polishing Guide

Cheers guys - I am glad that it is proving popular and useful.

I am at present creating a full set of guides - DA polishing, rotary polishing, clayind, sanding, etc etc etc... So watch this space, I will post them up as and when they are produced

They are intended as guides for anyone who wants to use them - so Beginners for starting out through to experienced users wanting a little reference. So I would appreciate all feedback on these guides from all users, please - you can PM me it if you dont want to post it publicly. Any feedback, good or bad (ideally constructive ) most appreciated as these guides will continually be worked upon and improved, so if you think something is rubbish then say so, so it can be improved

Already had great feedback in this thread, taken on board and improvements being worked on as we speak.

"Oxidisation"

Also, above the ferrari photo, in the caption it reads, "Honda S200."


Great guide so far!

Re: Unbelieveable Rotary Polishing Guide

This is perfect timing for me, as I just got a Makita off eBay. Great guide!

Re: Unbelieveable Rotary Polishing Guide

I just printed the whole guide on my work printer. I'm 30 pages deep so far and the thoroughness is impressive!

It will be my rotary bible.
