This guy (forgot his name) ....He’s Mike Pennington, Meg’s corporate Director of Training and Customer Relations.



He’s obviously an excellent instructor and, not surprisingly, does incredible work.

Yeah, I`ve been watching these over the past few weeks. It slowly gives me the courage to attempt wetsanding. :)



I know he says that the PC isn`t a good tool for taking out sanding marks, but I`m sure I`ve seen it done by some here. Guess it all depends on the marks, products used, paint, etc. But I`m pretty sure I`ve seen it done.



Those are some of the better videos on detailing at YouTube. Others are downright scary. :eek: :nervous2: :bolt

Some have done it, its much easier w/ a rotary. I did some testing yesterday, 5"yellow CCS and SFX-1. it seemed to remove most of the scratches after 2-3 passes but also added some as well. I`m pretty new so not sure if its me? I used the orange 5"ccs and it ran smoother for me. I didnt go all the way to finish but I believe that it can do it,well if you have lots of time! Again this was 1yr old clear and paint hardness/type can effect the results.





So anyway,now I`m buying a rotary and more supplies$$$

I wonder if you took it another step with a white pad would it have gone to finish?



But yeah, I`m thinking more and more about stepping up to a rotary myself. I`ll get there soon enough.



Enjoy your new toys!



Oh, and thanks for the vids MaximusZTS! :xyxthumbs

Seems like he knows a thing or two about how to operate a rotary. However, I believe he needs to learn some about the capabilities of a D/A buffer. It is much more capable than he lead those students to believe. It can easily remove 2500 grit sandpaper marks and finish as well or nearly as well as the rotary.

i agree with you on that.
