Paul Dalton Rotary Video......
Paul just emailed me this short (30 seconds) video of him using the rotary. I will find out what pad, speed, and chemical was being used.
Hope you all enjoy.

Re: Paul Dalton Rotary Video......
Geez...after watching that video he makes the rotary look just as easy as the PC.... 
However I am sure there is alot more to it. I would love to learn how to use mine. Guess I need to break it out and get practicing. |

Re: Paul Dalton Rotary Video......
I'm sorry, but using a rotary 1 handed is not smart. This guy might do expensive details on exotic vehicles, but buffing with 1 hand and video taping it is just showing off. It doesn't show any skill other than being foolish enough to take a chance at screwing up. There's no rationale or science defending it other than to show off. I can't help but to make fun of it.

There is no doubt that Paul is a talented detailer like countless others on the board, but I have to wholeheartedly agree with the above statement. It doesn't sound like to high of speed and the pad looked to be a finishing or polishing pad, but it just isn't smart to do the one handed buff.

Re: Paul Dalton Rotary Video......
I dont see anything wrong with it. I have done that many of times especially on the roof of a car where positioning myself to use both hands is near impossible on some vehicles. NOW, i only do what Paul did with a finishing pad. A cut pad with compound, I would not attempt one handed. Give the guy some slack, I dont feel he is trying to show off.

I would imagine in both vids he is doing a final polish step. I have never moved the buffer that fast! lol I probably move a third of the speed he is going.

Re: Paul Dalton Rotary Video......
Anyone notices that all these videos were posted by vxrmarc, the same guy that's SUPPOSEDLY just a "customer" who wears a Zymol polo, with Zymol and detailing products all around his garage yet still would foolishly overpay for a detail on a BRAND NEW daily driver.
This guy has nothing better to do all day than follow PD around and videotape him? Is it just me or does it seem like there's been some Zymol marketing machine around here lately?
