LOL, do we need to post the pic from my iPhone to determine who it was?

Hey, I was tired. Better to sleep there rather then while I was driving.

Side note: A rotary seems very simple once I saw how easy it was to use.

I wish I got a small nap in as well because 4 hours from the day before took a toll on me driving back the 80 or so miles.

+1000. After seeing it being used and how much faster it was to correct then my PCXP with 105 on a surbuf pad or an orange pad, I was pretty much sold.

I wont need to do any polishing until this spring tough. My moms Inifiniti has the same label Tims M45 had, "Hard Clear Coat" under the hood. For her car the Makita I plan to get will certainly help. Corrections with the rotaries there were double the speed of me trying to correct with my PCXP.

That's one good looking guy there but my opinion is bias. I had to take a nap or I was going to wreck the car on the way home and no buffer could get that out.

Side note : A rotary is not simple to use. It only seemed simple because Eric and I were there working with you and teaching it. I guarantee when your alone it won't be the same. Grab some junk panels and practice, practice, practice before you cause more harm than good.

Thanks DJ and Eric for hosting the class. I learned a lot at the class especially about my form. I'll get that fender eventually DJ. LoL. I had a great time and thanks everyone for not destroying my car. However, I think I see a halogram on the left rear door. No big deal, I'll redo my ride someday and show you guys what I learned.

PS- Peanuthead, you're lucky you got sleep. I only had 3hrs of sleep the night before the class and had a 4hr drive back and forth home. I literally passed out on the way home but made it in one piece somehow.

Yea a rotary isn't simple especially my stupid Dewalt. Wish I had a Makita because it was a lot lighter and easier to control. After using my Dewalt, my wrist was sore.

Thanks to DJ and Eric for the class. Def learned a lot more and appreciate the goodies we got from the sponsors. Like others have said, you guys def made the rotary look easy to use. I'll continue with my PC and then hopefully I'll step up to a rotary next spring.

I'd totally be there if I was closer! To have the potential to pick up a few cool tips and tricks from a guy of your background would be awesome. I hope all that went learned a lot and paid attention: you got to see a Master work!
