I also use #81. Professional Hand Polish which is very much like #7 but easier to remove.

Heh heh, yeah...I really only use it on fresh repaints. It works out great for those as it`s just *so* easy to throw a coat on there after each wash.

I have to agree, Megs#5 is much easier to use than #7. I just got off the phone with Meguairs customer care and the guy told me that #5 can be used with a rotary(dont know why you would want to do that) and #7 cannot.

#3 is formulated to be used with a rotary. I know that Tim Lingor and others love the look they get from #3 when applied by a rotary.

I have put 7 on by a rotary. I did it that way long time ago. I used a finishing pad and really low speed. Don`t get crazy, if you use to much speed or overwork it the oils flash off. Then you will wish you done it by hand. :p

I never had any problems. FWIW I use a PC for applications now. :buffing:

I used #7 via rotary back in the 70s and it worked OK as long as you didn`t overwork it. The much drier #5 is the one I wouldn`t have considered rotary-friendly :nixweiss
